Field-Level Result Indicators

Field-level result indicators describe how Validate Address Loqate handled each address element. Field-level result indicators are returned in the qualifier "Result". For example, the field-level result indicator for HouseNumber is contained in HouseNumber.Result.

To enable field-level result indicators, check the Include result codes for individual fields box.

The following table lists the field-level result indicators. If a particular field does not apply to an address, the result indicator may be blank.
