Global Address Verification:Response

← Global Address Verification

A response is the result of a request. This consists of returned results codes, parsed address elements, and appended address information.

Depending on the protocol used to make the request, the response will be in a certain protocol. Global Address Verification supports the JSON, JSONP, SOAP, and XML protocols.

MelissaAddressKey

This is a globally unique and persistent key for the postal address, even if parts of the address change. When an address is fully validated this field returns a 10-digit proprietary unique identifier for that address. With AddressKey (US and Canada only), if an address zip code changes, the AddressKey would also change. Melissa Address Key (MAK) is independent and will not change. This makes MAK a good way to permanently identify and also to use as a value for finding duplicates. Currently, we return MAK numbers for over 50 countries with more planned for the future.

This provides a link between all the individual MAK addresses that belong to the same building. This field also returns a 10-digit proprietary key. Note, if we can validate the address to the building but not the suite, we can return just the BaseMAK. Currently available for countries that have support for MelissaAddressKey.

Country	Description
Serbia	The PostOfficeLocation contains the old 5 digit postal number and name. The postal code field will contain the new 6 digit PAK number.
Slovakia	The PostOfficeLocation returns the name of the post office location if it is not the same as the delivery address locality.

Protocol	Syntax
JSON	"PostOfficeLocation":"string"
SOAP/XML	<PostOfficeLocation>string</PostOfficeLocation>

SubPremiseLevel

This is a secondary piece of sub premise information used to describe a more generic division of the subpremise. For example, if you have an address like “1123 Market Way, Floor 12 Apt 25A” then the Subpremises will be “Apt 25A” and the SubPremiseLevel will be “Floor 12”. This value is not widely used in official address data.

SubPremiseLevelType and SubPremiseLevelNumber make up the SubPremiseLevel. In our example, the SubPremiseLevelType is “Floor” and the SubPremiseLevelNumber is “12”.

Protocol	Syntax
JSON	"SubPremiseLevel":"string"
SOAP/XML	<SubPremiseLevel>string</SubPremiseLevel>

We will only return the standard timezone and this flag to indicate is daylight savings is observed.

Protocol	Syntax
JSON	"DST":"string"
SOAP/XML	<DST>string</DST>

DeliveryPointSuffix

This is a country dependent field. This field returns an identifier that represents a suffix code usually tied to a delivery point.
