STAR Announces New APIs for Automotive Fleet Vehicle Rentals and Loyalty Customer Leads

“These new APIs represent a major step forward in modernizing how critical dealership operations exchange data,” said Steve Zadoorian, Executive Director of STAR. “For the first time, retailers, OEMs, and technology providers have a consistent, open standard for fleet rental workflows and loyalty-based customer lead management. These specifications were shaped directly by our members, and they reflect STAR’s commitment to delivering practical, scalable standards that make integration faster, reduce costs, and improve the customer experience across the entire automotive ecosystem.”

The Loyalty Customer Lead API is designed to synchronize customer updates between Dealer Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) systems. This specification outlines the various endpoints for managing customer lead data, including operations to retrieve a list of customer leads, get details for a specific customer ID, update customer lead details, and publish notifications about customer lead updates. The API requires mandatory header parameters like country code, CRM ID, and dealer ID for all operations, and it defines detailed schemas for customer information, addresses, contact methods, and error responses.

Both APIs are available for free to download on the Sales-related API section of STAR’s website.
