This page documents the current CSV results files delivered by SkipMatrix; it is not an API contract.

SkipMatrix delivers a ZIP archive organized by search method. Each search method determines the submitted inputs and fallback tiers, the folders and files returned, and the field list used by each enriched file. An enriched file is any result file other than a Missed Hits file.

Search Methods

For search methods with multiple tiers, SkipMatrix tries the best qualifying tier first and moves to the next usable tier after a miss. A tier is skipped when the row lacks one of its required values.

For the full-address tiers marked below, the ZIP value may be blank for an individual row, but the ZIP column must still be mapped in the upload.

Person Search

Person Search looks for a person using a submitted name and address.

Tier Submitted Fields ZIP Behavior Input Method
1 First Name + Last Name + Street Address + City + State ZIP value may be blank Name + Address
2 First Name + Last Name + Street Address + ZIP Code ZIP is required Name + Street + ZIP 
Person Search/
|-- All Available Data.csv
|-- Mobiles.csv
|-- Landlines.csv
|-- Missed Hits.csv

The enriched files use the 332-field list in Appendix A.

Address Search

Address Search looks for people associated with a submitted address. A person name is not required.
