Sample Code in .NET (C#)

Call the Address Lookup API:

    using (var addressService = new AddressService())
    {
        // Search for '80 Queen St'
        var searchResult = addressService.AddressSearchAsync("80 Queen St").Result;
        Console.WriteLine("Found {0} matches.", searchResult.matched);

        foreach (var address in searchResult.addresses)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(address.a);
        }

        // Grab the first address in the list
        var addressId = searchResult.addresses[0].id;

        // Perform a detailed lookup for the address
        var addressDetail = addressService.GetAddressDetailByIdAsync(addressId).Result;

        Console.WriteLine("Full: {0}", addressDetail.full);
        Console.WriteLine("Type: {0}", addressDetail.type);
        Console.WriteLine("Unique ID: {0}", addressDetail.id);
        Console.WriteLine("NZ Post DPID: {0}", addressDetail.dpid);
        Console.WriteLine("LINZ Street ID: {0}", addressDetail.linzid);
        Console.WriteLine("Parcel ID: {0}", addressDetail.parcelid);
        Console.WriteLine("Meshblock ID: {0}", addressDetail.meshblock);
        Console.WriteLine("Number: {0}", addressDetail.number);
        Console.WriteLine("Alpha: {0}", addressDetail.alpha);
        Console.WriteLine("Unit Number: {0}", addressDetail.unitnumber);
        Console.WriteLine("Unit Type: {0}", addressDetail.unittype);
        Console.WriteLine("Foor: {0}", addressDetail.floor);
        Console.WriteLine("Street: {0}", addressDetail.street);
        Console.WriteLine("Suburb: {0}", addressDetail.suburb);
        Console.WriteLine("Mailtown: {0}", addressDetail.mailtown);
        Console.WriteLine("Postcode: {0}", addressDetail.postcode);

        Console.WriteLine("Y: {0}", addressDetail.y);
        Console.WriteLine("Territory: {0}", addressDetail.territory);
