Experian Phone Validation can be integrated in different ways depending on how you plan to use the service. Real‑time and bulk validation follow different interaction patterns, so the integration options available to you vary by usage model. This page explains the supported integration approaches and helps you choose the one that fits your goal.
Real‑time validation is designed to be embedded directly into user‑facing flows, such as forms, sign‑up journeys, and account updates. These integrations focus on fast feedback and ease of use, so you can validate email addresses as they are entered, one at a time, without disrupting the user experience.
We provide a range of flexible integration options. Choosing the right option depends on your role and use case.

What if your language isn't supported yet?
Additional languages may be available upon request - contact your Account Manager for details. In the meantime, use our API specification with code generation tools, like Swagger Codegen or OpenAPI Generator to create a client in your language of choice.
This approach gives you full access to the API and ensures a type-safe integration.
Use Swagger Codegen when you want maximum flexibility and control over how Experian Phone Validation API is integrated into your systems. Swagger Codegen can generate strongly‑typed clients for the Experian Phone Validation API in your preferred language, allowing you to design the integration around your own architecture rather than a predefined SDK pattern.
Experian provides contact data quality solutions that directly integrate with your MS Dynamics 365 environment as well as Power Pages, giving you an easy way to protect the accuracy of your data at entry. Our accredited solutions for Microsft Power Platform facilitate real-time capture and validation of address, email, and phone data whenever contact data is entered or edited in the system.
Experian Data Quality for Salesforce Sales and Service Cloud delivers real-time contact data validation during the data collection process. It formats, standardises, and validates addresses, email addresses and phone numbers in real-time when a contact record is created or updated within your CRM.
Bulk validation is designed for processing large volumes of existing data, such as imported lists or databases, without requiring an immediate response. These integrations focus on reliability and control, allowing you to submit batches for background processing and retrieve the results once validation is complete.
