A response is the result of a request. This consists of returned results codes and returned addresses, depending on the input provided.

Depending on the protocol used to make the request, the response will be in a certain protocol. Reverse GeoCoder supports these response protocols: XML, and JSON.


Field Names

This is a list of the response field names and their protocol naming conventions.

Field Name Level JSON/XML
Version Response (Base) Version
Transmission Reference TransmissionReference
Transmission Results TransmissionResults
Results Results
Total Records TotalRecords
Records Record Records
Address Line 1 AddressLine1
Suite Name SuiteName
Suite Count SuiteCount

Response Elements

The following elements are the basic options for each request. These apply to the entire response, not the individual records.

Version

This is a string value that is the current revision number of Reverse GeoCoder.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "Version":"string"
XML <Version>string</Version>


Transmission Reference

This is a string value that serves as a unique identifier for this set of records. It is returned as sent by the Request Array, allowing you to match the Response to the Request.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "TransmissionReference":"string"
XML <TransmissionReference>string</TransmissionReference>


Transmission Results

This is a string value that lists error codes from any errors caused by the most recent request as a whole.
For a complete list of error codes, see Reverse GeoCoder Result Codes.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "TransmissionResults":"string"
XML <TransmissionResults>string</TransmissionResults>


Results

This is a string value with comma delimited status, error codes, and change codes for the record.
For a complete list of error codes, see Reverse GeoCoder Result Codes.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "Results":"string"
XML <Results>string</Results>


Total Records

Displays the total number of records returned.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "TotalRecords":"string"
XML <TotalRecords>string</TotalRecords>


Response Record Elements

JSON will only contain the Records element.

Protocol Definition
JSON Each record will be contained within [{}] under the Records element.
XML

Each of the following elements are returned for each record in the Response Array.


AddressLine1

Returns the street address (street number and street name) that corresponds to the input geo coordinates.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "AddressLine1":"string"
XML <AddressLine1>string</AddressLine1>


SuiteName

Returns the suite name of the address returned. Values that could be returned are: Ste, Apt., etc.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "SuiteName":"string"
XML <SuiteName>string</SuiteName>

Protocol Syntax
JSON "SuiteCount":"string"
XML <SuiteCount>string</SuiteCount>


City

Returns the city of the output address.
Protocol Syntax
JSON "City":"string"
XML <City>string</City>
