Overview
To ensure our Worldview platform provides customers with the most up-to-date, high quality reference data possible, our team performs ongoing diligence and audits of our data partners. As a result, data sources may be reclassified or deprecated. These changes are communicated with customers and take effect on scheduled change dates - they do not occur without notice.
Impact
Deprecated Sources
Following the scheduled change date, if a source has been deprecated then it will no longer contribute to match results in any way. Therefore, deprecated sources will no longer be included in the MT messages in the Worldview API response.
Reclassified Sources
Following the scheduled change date, the data source type (DST) returned within the Worldview API response would reflect the reclassified source in the following places:
- MT messages
- Specific Code-Value pairs
- Concatenated string of AU and MT messages
Example:
In data source coverage for Spain, a Commercial source (CMM4) is being reclassified as a Telco (TEL2) source. The following changes would be expected in the API response:
MT Messages
| Current MT Message | Reclassified MT Message |
| 1MT-ES-CMM4-COMPLETENAME | 1MT-ES-TEL2-COMPLETENAME |
Code-Value Pairs (2x2 configured tenants only)
| Current Code-Value Pairs | Reclassified Code-Value Pairs |

"code": "TEL2", "value": "1;1;1;3;3;1;3;1;3;4;1;4;3;1;1;1;4;5;5;1;1;1;1;3;3" |
