Address data enrichment
Adds the county, district (járás), settlement code and postal code to an address — where the source contains them. In a uniform structure, the same way on every endpoint.
Example
szged
Szeged
The live demo returns the same — the fields above are the actual fields of the API response.
What it does
The settlement’s code in the official Gazetteer (Helységnévtár). With it, two databases can be linked even when the spelling of names differs.
Administrative classification for the address, as it stands in the Gazetteer.
The postal code linked to the address or settlement. If the postal code entered differs from the postal code of the address found, the response flags this separately.
How to call it
A simple REST API with JSON responses. A uniform address object on every endpoint.
The details of the call — parameters, fields, error codes and examples — are in the API documentation. You can also view the raw response in the live demo with the “API response (JSON)” button.
