You have multiple options for capturing data from your inspections using PAVE:

1. API and Webhooks: You can utilize PAVE's robust API and Webhooks to integrate inspection data into your systems seamlessly. This allows for real-time data capture and immediate processing.

2. SFTP Option: You can use the SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) option for specific scenarios. You can configure this directly from your enterprise dashboard, enabling you to schedule and transfer inspection data at your convenience.

You can select the method that aligns best with your specific needs and system requirements to capture and utilize inspection data efficiently.

Before you start setting up your first SFTP batch, let's walk through the process by navigating to the SETTINGS and BATCHES sections. Here's what you need to do to familiarize yourself with the information required:

1. Go to the SETTINGS section in your enterprise dashboard.

2. Within SETTINGS, find the BATCHES option and click on it.

3. Look for the green "+ CREATE NEW BATCH" button and click on it to set up a new batch.

4. In the batch creation process, you will likely encounter options related to FTP (File Transfer Protocol). You can use the FTP toggle switch to understand the information you'll need to configure for SFTP-based batch transfers.

By following these steps, you'll be able to get the necessary details and settings for setting up your SFTP batch effectively.

Determining whether your SFTP endpoint requires only a password, an SSH private key, or both is a critical step in setting up your SFTP batch. Here's how to assess this:

1. Password: If your SFTP server is configured to accept authentication through a username and password combination, you will need the SFTP username and password to establish the connection.

2. SSH Private Key: If your SFTP server uses SSH key-based authentication, you will need to generate an SSH key pair. This pair typically consists of a private key (which you keep confidential) and a public key (which you provide to the server). Your SFTP server's administrator can guide you on how to upload or configure your public key for authentication.

3. Both: Some SFTP servers may offer the option to use either a password or an SSH private key for authentication. In such cases, you can choose the method that aligns with your security and access requirements.

Please consult your SFTP server's documentation or contact your system administrator to figure out the authentication method needed for your specific SFTP endpoint. This information is crucial for a successful setup of your SFTP batch.

The 'Data: Manage' setting allows the admin user to access and edit the ‘Batches’ and ‘Exports’ functionality as well as generate and download the Session Files CSVs With this permission turned ON, Admin users have access to the following features on their enterprise dashboard as shown below:

You can receive email delivery for all completed condition reports for any Admin or User in your account alongside the available SMS notifications.

Steps to Enable:

1. Go to 'Settings' and then 'Users.'

2. Choose an existing user or create a new one to receive the condition reports.

3. Toggle the option "EMAIL USER ALL COMPLETED CONDITION REPORTS" to 'On' and save the changes.

Once enabled, any newly completed condition reports will be automatically sent to the selected user's email address. To stop receiving reports by email, please return to the user's settings, switch the toggle to 'Off,' and save your changes.

To further customize, any background and text color can be added to further enhance the custom brand experience.

User Types

There are two user roles to choose from, Admin and User. Each role has specific permissions and features granted.

Admin Role

An Admin can access the full feature set on the platform. Namely, the Dashboard and Session Files. Additionally, an Admin can also access the Developer tools, such as, API Keys, Logs, Session Events, Webhooks, as well as the Settings, which include, Account and User management, Branding, Widgets, Batches, Estimates, and Integrations.

User Role

A User has limited permissions as compared to an Admin. A user can send inspections and manage sessions through the dashboard, for the selected or all API Keys.

When a User role has been set up, this user can only access the Dashboard view for the specific API key to which they are granted access.

As part of a 'User' role, users are only able to see the following features on their PAVE dashboard:

User List

The list of users can be found in the Settings panel, inside the 'User' section.

In case the user list is quite large, there is a search bar located above the list from where a user can be found using keywords.

User details can be edited easily by selecting a user and clicking on the 'Edit' button next to the user's username.

Once changes are made to the existing user, click 'Save Changes' to save these changes and close the modal.

To deactivate a user account, please follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Settings menu from your main dashboard.

2. Within the Settings menu, select the Users option to view a list of all user accounts.

3. Locate the account you wish to deactivate by scrolling through the list or using the search function.

4. Click on the Edit button located next to the user's account information.

5. Find and select the Deactivate This Account option in the user's account settings.

6. Confirm the deactivation to complete the process.

Please make sure you have the necessary administrative permissions to perform these actions. Once a user account is deactivated, the user will no longer have access to the system until their account is reactivated.

To reactivate a user account, please follow these detailed steps:

1. Access the Settings section from your main dashboard.

2. Click on the Users tab within the Settings to display the list of user accounts.

3. Find the account you want to reactivate. You may need to filter or search if there are many accounts.

4. Click the Edit button adjacent to the desired account to enter its settings.

5. Look for the Reactivate Account option in the account settings and select it.

6. Confirm the reactivation to grant the user access to the system again.

Reactivating an account will restore the user's access to all their previous system permissions and data.

Editing an existing widget

Existing widgets can be edited by selecting 'Edit' for the required Widget, as highlighted below.

Widgets

With PAVE's unlimited Website Widgets and Shareable Links, you can provide multiple options for your customers to self-request inspection links either from your website or from a shareable URL. You can also install a shareable link to launch inspections directly from your smart-phone without logging into the PAVE dashboard.

Website Widget

You can set up a website widget on any page on your website. The widget is specially coded to that page, so when someone requests a new inspection, the new inspection will appear on your dashboard under the name of your widget. The screen shot below is an example of a website widget on a dealership website.

Shareable Link

With a shareable link, you can provide a URL in an email or a QR code on a letter that customers can link to in order to self-launch a vehicle inspection. The example below is a lease-end pre-inspection mailer that can be sent to customers prior to an expected lease termination to assess any additional damages.

Smartphone "Quick Launch" Shareable Link

Our users tell us that one of the most convenient things about PAVE is the ability to launch an inspection from a link on your smartphone anywhere and anytime. Some examples of when you might need this feature:

1) Run into a customer at the grocery store who's interested in trading? Send them a link directly from your phone, and once completed, you will see it appear on your dashboard under your PAVE username.

2) Having a busy Saturday afternoon and there's a line-up for appraisals from the used car manager? Send yourself a link, capture your customer's vehicle using your own phone, and have your manager appraise it later when they have some time.

Overview

With PAVE's easy to use JavaScript, you can replace your long "online appraisal" or "sell your car" forms on your website by only requiring visitors to enter their name and phone number to get a PAVE link sent to them directly. PAVE will automatically gather the rest of the needed information from the photos as they capture them.

Website Installation

When they submit their phone number to get sent a PAVE link, their session and progress will automatically show on your dashboard as being sent from your webpage under the name you gave your widget for easy tracking. Once they are complete in doing their capture, the people you have set up to get notified will receive a link by text with the results.

For embedding on your website, you have two options;

1 - iframe: This option allows you to embed the PAVE Inspect form as a frame or an external resource.

2 - floating form: This option allows you to add the PAVE Inspect form to hover on the bottom center of any page where the script gets added.

Iframe: (optional)

Your website layout and the theme used will affect how your form appears on your web page. We calculate the height and the width of your form based on the container size where you embed the form.

To embed the PAVE Inspect form, first create the container on your webpage where you want it to be placed. Once created, replace the 'YOUR_CONTAINER_ID' in the script that is displayed for that widget with the name you gave this container.

**SAMPLE ONLY**

<script src="https://uat.paveinspect.com/js/launch-widget.js"></script>
<script>
  initPAVELauncher({
    'container': 'YOUR_CONTAINER_ID'
    'src': 'https://uat.paveinspect.com/launch-widget/43b4a899-6bf1-48b8-ae72-451d08aac5e9'
  });
</script>

**SAMPLE ONLY** the script for your website is created in SETTINGS when you activate a new form.

Copy the script for your form and add it within the <body> of your page. The form will automatically load inside the defined container.

Floating form: (default)

If you choose not to enter a designated container for where the PAVE Inspect form appears within your web page, the form will automatically default to float on the bottom center of the page.

Where to find 'YOUR_CONTAINER_ID'

The 'Container ID' is the ID that was given for the <div> where you want the form to be displayed on your webpage. <div id="form" class="container">

You can find this in the HTML for your page. If you only have a <div class="container'> you should add an ID to your container and enter it in the script before adding it to your <body> . Using the name of the "class" instead of the "id" may not work correctly as you may have several containers with the same class.

Directly copy the script for each of the forms that are displayed in your SETTINGS for the widget and insert it inside the of each page you wish to display the form.

New Widget

Creating a new widget is simple. By clicking the 'Create New Widget' a user can create a custom widget quickly.

Select 'Embed Widget' widget type and add the details as shown below. Customization can be done in terms of styling, colors, text, and headline.

Google Analytics can also be integrated into the widget by adding the GA Tracking ID as requested.

Sharable Link Feature

The Sharable Link feature can be easily located on the dashboard, inside SETTINGS > WIDGETS, as shown below

Creating a Sharable Link

Create a new Sharable Link in a few simple steps

Step 1: Select 'Create New Widget' on the Widget's page

Step 2: Select 'Sharable Link' on the 'Create New Widget' pop-up.

Step 3: Add the details such as, 'Widget Name' and the 'API Key' you would like this Sharable Link to be linked with. If needed, you may select the optional settings as well, as explained ahead.

Step 4: Your new Sharable Link and QR Code is ready

Using the Sharable Link

There are two ways to use a Sharable Link

1. Sharable Link URL

You can share the Sharable Link URL. Using the launcher form, you can send an inspection to any mobile number through an SMS, to initiate a PAVE.

2. QR Code

You can also download and distribute the QR Code, which when scanned through a mobile device directs the user to the Launcher Page

Previewing the Sharable link launch page

To preview a sharable link you can click on the Preview option, as shown below. This link, which is the same as the Sharable Link URL, opens in a new webpage to preview.

Existing Widgets can be previewed in HTML. This helps get a feel for the actual user experience with the widget on the client's actual website.

To preview a widget, simply click on 'Preview.

Once 'Preview' is clicked, the user is redirected to a new webpage that shows the actual widget interface on the webpage.

Estimates

Excess Wear and Tear detected by PAVE can be classified as replaceable or repairable. For each damage, if the Admin so chooses, the damage repair cost estimates can be made and displayed within the Condition Report PDF.

The repair/replacement costs can be manually entered and saved on the dashboard. Once the report is run, it will directly take the estimates and publish them on the Condition Report PDF.

Editing Estimate Values

The "ESTIMATES" section can be found under "SETTINGS" tab of the client dashboard. At this time, the UI will display all 375 available components within the 4 sub-groups of BODY, PARTS, GLASS, WHEELS AND TIRES.

BODY = 95 Editable Components

PARTS = 240 Editable Components

GLASS = 19 Editable Components

WHEELS = 16 Editable Components

TIRES = 5 Editable Components

You may edit the values for each (or all) of the four repair methods of REPLACEMENT, REPAIR & REFINISH, REFINISH ONLY or PDR REPAIR (marked as N/A If not applicable) associated with each component.

Standard Labor Rate

Set your Standard Labor Rate to calculate the total labor cost for each repair. If you use multiple facilities with different labor rates, contact your PAVE Account Executive for additional options on how to have multiple custom damage tables.

By toggling the $TBD switch on for any repair type, this will set these items not to calculate a value and instead, these items get classified as repairs that require additional diagnostics and "$TBD" replaces the dollar amounts for these items.

INFO/REPORT ITEMS

If you wish to identify some damage types as "INFORMATION - REPORT ONLY" such that no dollar value is assigned to the repair, set all values for that repair to $0 LABOR and $0 PARTS & MATERIALS. These items will be displayed in the Normal Wear and Tear section of your estimates, not under Excess Wear where all amounts are chargeable.

Reset Values to Default

You can reset your entire wear and tear estimates back to the current default values at any time by clicking and confirming Reset Values to Default. These default values may also get updated by Discovery Loft over time which will only impact any values you have not edited and will not overwrite any values you have specifically set.

This easy 3-step integration process allows you to combine PAVE's vehicle capture, inspection, and grading process with vAuto Provision's market insights to make better inventory acquisition decisions and set the correct actual cash values on every trade and inventory acquisition opportunity.

Key Benefits:

• Never manually key in another 17-character VIN. Now simply taking a photo of any VIN using PAVE will automatically populate it accurately in vAuto.

• Get actual mileage from a single photo captured by PAVE. Every PAVE inspection extracts the exact odometer reading from the vehicle, which is now automatically populated in vAuto.

• Every inspection in PAVE is now linkable to your appraisal in Provision in one click.

• Access PAVE's comprehensive condition report directly within vAuto from the URL included in the notes on each appraisal.

Integrating vAuto Provision with your PAVE API Dashboard

Step 1: Call vAuto tech support at 1-877-828-8614 and select Option 2.

Step 2: Advise them that you would like to complete a CRM integration with Discovery Loft's PAVE system and that you need them to set up an Entity ID and Username.

Step 3: Once you have been supplied with your Entity ID and Username, add this information on the PAVE dashboard inside Settings>Integrations

Step 4: Set your account as 'Active' (required)

Information passed from PAVE to vAuto

The first step is to create a new user (or update an existing one). Creating a new user can be done easily by selecting "Settings">"Users">"Create New User"

Step 2: Add New User details

Add the Username, Full Name, and Email. Then select the 'USER' role and select the API keys that you would like this user to have access to.

Step 3: Send log-in Credentials to the User

Send the user their account login credentials by generating a password and then clicking 'Save Changes' as shown below.

Step 4: Access the 'User only' Dashboard View

The user can now access the PAVE Branch Dashboard specific to the API-Keys that they have access to, with no other user's sessions visible on their dashboard.

Link a Sharable Link to a specific User

Finally, setting up Sharable Links unique to each user also ensures that the sessions created using that Sharable Link are visible to only that user.

Step 5: (Applicable if using Sharable Links)

Doing so will show any sessions created by this Sharable Link inside only that User's branch dashboard, as shown below:

Following the steps outlined above will allow you to keep sessions created by different users separated and unique to that user.

Custom Content-Driven Photos

The Custom Capture feature allows users to set up their desired custom content-driven photo capture flow based on their requirements for any specific API key within their account.

If selected, this would add this customized capture flow to the end of the inspection capture process. The client can create an unlimited number of these flows that they can attach to any specific API key.

Step 1: Activation on Your Account

First, the feature must be activated for your business account. Please ask your Client Support Manager to activate this feature to your account.

Step 2: Setting up a Custom Capture Flow

PAVE Dashboard

To use this feature on the PAVE dashboard, select the "CUSTOM CAPTURE" section inside "SETTINGS"
