Visit IATI Validator

The IATI Validator is an online tool for checking if data aligns with the rules and guidance of the IATI Standard. It allows users to check and improve the quality of IATI data to ensure it is accessible and useful to anyone working with data on development and humanitarian resources and results.

How the IATI Validator works

The IATI Validator performs checks on IATI data files and returns error and warning messages about how to correct the data. There are three ways to use the IATI Validator.

  1. Check data: anyone can upload their IATI data files to be checked before publishing them.
  2. Public data viewer: anyone can check all IATI data files that have been published.
  3. Validator API: technical users can intergrate the Validator API into their internal data systems for periodic data checks
