GlobalExpressAddress

The GlobalExpressAddress service is consumed to retrieve results containing all of the available address elements of an address record: FormattedAddress, AddressLine1-8, CountryISO3166_1_Alpha2, CountryISO3166_1_Alpha3, CountryISO3166_1_Numeric, SubNationalArea, PremisesNumber, AdministrativeArea, SubadministrativeArea, locality, dependentlocality, doubledependentlocality, thoroughfare, dependentthoroughfare, building, postalcode, and postbox.

A typical use of the GlobalExpressAddress method is preceded by a call to the GlobalExpressPostalCode service. The GlobalExpressPostalCode service is provided as a means of retrieving postal code, locality, and administrative area combinations using the postal code as the search input.

Extras

If you specify column:gbextras in the request options, we will return additional outputs. These outputs are presented in a different format. They will look like this below.
<Extras>
    <root>
        <extra>
            <key>UDPRN</key>
            <value>25877698</value>
        </extra>
        <extra>
            <key>UPRN</key>
            <value>217122173</value>
        </extra>
    </root>
</Extras>
Here are the possible output and groups:
