The Loqate API offers a robust toolkit for location data services including address verification, geocoding, and autocomplete. When leveraged within Pipedream, users can automate workflows involving data enrichment, validation, and location intelligence. You can seamlessly integrate real-time address validation in your e-commerce checkout process, enrich user profiles with geographic data, or automate the updating of an address database.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
loqate: {
type: "app",
app: "loqate",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.addressy.com/EmailValidation/Batch/Validate/v1.20/json.ws`,
params: {
Key: `${this.loqate.$auth.service_key}`,
Emails: `{enter_email_here}`,
},
})
},
})
Address Validation for E-Commerce Checkout: In an e-commerce platform, use the Loqate API to validate customer shipping addresses at checkout. Trigger a workflow on Pipedream when a new order is placed, validate the address with Loqate, and only proceed with the order processing if the address is confirmed as valid.
Enrich User Profiles with Location Data: When a new user signs up on your platform, automatically enrich their profile with geocoded data. Using a webhook to capture signup events, a Pipedream workflow calls the Loqate API to add precise location information to the user's profile, enhancing personalization and enabling location-based services.
Database Cleanup with Batch Address Verification: Schedule a Pipedream workflow to periodically run through your database of contact addresses, using the Loqate API for batch verification. Update records with validated addresses and flag those that require manual review, ensuring your mailing lists and contact information are accurate and up-to-date.
Loqate uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Loqate account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Loqate APIs in both code and no-code steps.
