Description

Easily get a Dutch address via postcodeapi.nu. It is just a simple module without user interface. Everything could be done by using the two microflows:

  1. ACT_SearchAddress_Create: Create a SearchAddress entity and use this to fill with the postal code, housenumber and the API Key (now you can choose yourself where and how you want to store your secret keys)
  2. GET_SearchAddress_FromService: Call this microflow with a SearchAddress entity and get a SearchAddress entity back. The boolean field AddressFound indicates whether the call was succesful or not.

 

Typical usage scenario

Verify if a given postal code and housenumber exists. And get the street and the city so that the user doesn't have to provide it manually.

 

Features and limitations

Registration at postcodeapi.nu is necessary. It's free and you get the required API key immediately.

 

Dependencies

Needs the StrUtils package.

 

Configuration

Provide the API Key when calling the REST service via the microflow.
