00Overview
UK vehicle data — tax, MOT status and vehicle details (DVLA Vehicle Enquiry Service)
Every field below is exactly what you see in the Flomation editor. Fields marked ● live picker let you choose from a list pulled live from your account — no IDs to look up.
01Connecting DVLA
Add your credentials as a Flomation environment secret, then pick them in each node. The connection fields are:
| Field | Type | Details | |
|---|---|---|---|
| DVLA API Key | secret | Required | ${secrets.DVLA_VES_KEY} |
Pick an Environment on your flow (Flow Settings → Environment) so the secret resolves. Secret fields never show the value — they reference ${secrets.your_secret}.
02Vehicle
Vehicle Enquiry
ukgov/dvla/vehicle_enquiry · Action
Look up a UK vehicle's tax, MOT status, make, colour and CO2 by registration (DVLA)
| Field | Type | Details | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Registration Number | string | Required | e.g. AB19 ABC |
Returns: tool_result, vehicle, make, colour, tax_status, mot_status, year_of_manufacture, success, error
03Notes & Limitations
Behaviours and constraints worth knowing before you build with these nodes.
- Vehicle enquiry covers only vehicles registered in Great Britain; Northern Ireland registrations are not held by this service and will not return a result.
- An unrecognised or invalid registration returns a not-found error rather than an empty record, so build your flow to handle that as a distinct outcome from a successful lookup.
- Individual fields such as MOT status or CO2 are only returned where DVLA holds them, so treat any given field as potentially absent rather than guaranteed.
