Address autocomplete
Learn about how Address autocomplete helps you find, select, and apply accurate address values while creating or updating profiles.
The Address autocomplete feature provides real-time address suggestions as you type in address fields while creating or updating profiles in the Reltio Hub. When you select a suggestion, the full, validated address is automatically populated across the relevant address attributes.
Manual address entry is a common source of data quality issues, including typos, inconsistent formatting, and incomplete records. Address autocomplete reduces these issues by validating address data at the point of entry, before it is saved to the tenant.
This feature is designed for the following users who create or manage location data in the Reltio Hub:
How it works
Address autocomplete uses the following two APIs:
-
Search API: Returns real-time, type-ahead address suggestions based on the text entered in an address field. A search starts after you enter the minimum number of characters.
-
Fetch API: Returns the full, validated address for a selected suggestion, and populates the address attributes in the profile according to the output mapping configured for that entity type.
The two APIs work in sequence. The Search API surfaces candidate addresses as you type. Once you select an address from the list, the Fetch API retrieves the complete address record and maps it to the appropriate attributes in the entity.
