The documentation for the API notes that “each query must have non-blank values for at least one of the following combinations”:
-
query.latitude
+query.longitude
-
query.street_address
+query.city
+query.region
+query.postal_code
+query.iso_country_code
But when submitting a bulk query the API returns a 400
status code error if city and postal code are missing, even if there is a valid lat/lng.
Given that placekey is checking the lat/lng first, should it fail when a partial address is used?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts/guidance!
Example that returns 400
status_code (same result with NA
or NULL
in city and postal_code:
response <- POST('https://api.placekey.io/v1/placekeys',
body = list(queries = list(
list(
latitude = 35.97922,
longitude = -78.78797,
street_address = '302 PATTERSON RD',
city = '',
region = 'NC',
postal_code = '',
iso_country_code = 'US'
),
list(
latitude = 35.95072,
longitude = -78.95743,
street_address = '3608 WESTOVER RD',
city = '',
region = 'NC',
postal_code = '',
iso_country_code = 'US'
)
)
),
add_headers(apikey = Sys.getenv("PLACEKEY_SECRET")),
encode = 'json')
Working version without partial address:
response <- POST('https://api.placekey.io/v1/placekeys',
body = list(queries = list(
list(
latitude = 35.97922,
longitude = -78.78797
),
list(
latitude = 35.95072,
longitude = -78.95743
)
)
),
add_headers(apikey = Sys.getenv("PLACEKEY_SECRET")),
encode = 'json')
