Aperture Data Studio has three types of contact data validation available natively, namely address validation, email validation and phone validation. Live validation is currently available for phone numbers, whilst address validation enables validating against reference data. Live validation for email addresses is coming to Aperture Data Studio in a future update.
Address validation in Aperture Data Studio is performed via the integrated Batch product for which you can license many [reference datasets]{/data-resources/global-datasets/} in key regions to validate your data against.
If you have a need for additional international address validation, we can support this for 245 countries and territories. Please speak to your Experian Account Manager for more information.
The live status of a phone number is checked via a live ping using the Experian Phone Validation product that enables you to obtain additional information about each phone number. For example, you can determine the validity, whether the numbers are landline or cell phone numbers, or if the number is known to be disposable. An Experian Phone Validation license is required. Learn more about the phone validation Workflow step and licensing on our Workflow steps page.
