Abstract

In embodiments, computer systems, computer-readable media, and methods perform operations such as deliver, on behalf of a primary entity, data reports to domains. However, before delivering, they check to see if such a data report has already taken delivered, perhaps inadvertently, in case the primary entity had given duplicative instructions for the delivery. The checking can start either directly with a domain online space of the domain itself, or by exploring a partner online space of a partner entity. In each case, the primary entity provides credentials for access to an online space, and of course permission. Access to the online space is accomplished via the credentials, an inquiry is transmitted to the online space, and inquiry results are received in response to the transmitted inquiry. The inquiry results are analyzed and, if it is determined that such a delivery has taken place, the primary entity is notified.
