Driving Records
Datalink background check integration
SafestHires connects to Datalink through our open XML/JSON API, so your team orders FCRA-compliant background checks without leaving the platform they already work in.
How the Datalink connection works
Motor vehicle record and driver-history requests route through the provider's state connections from the same order screen as the rest of the package.
State-required consent forms are collected up front, so the request is not rejected for missing authorization.
Results return into the same SafestHires report as criminal and verification components.
What you get
MVRs, CDLIS, FMCSA PSP for fleets or any role that gets behind a wheel.
- No integration fee, platform fee, or seat license — you pay per check.
- Candidate-facing disclosure and authorization that meets FCRA requirements, plus applicable state and local notices.
- Live status visibility inside the candidate record, so recruiters stop emailing for updates.
- Adverse action support with pre-adverse and final notices, timing, and documentation.
- U.S.-based, FCRA-certified support that answers when your team calls.
