Comprehensive API
AL2Anywhere has been built so your IT team really can do anything with the data, leaving them free
to customise the service with ease.
The core principle behind AL2Anywhere is the same as it is for every Postcode Anywhere product:
making valuable data available anywhere. The cornerstone of this data ubiquity is a broad, robust
and intuitive API (application programming interface).
Developers use APIs to build applications around the AL2 data, and our unique experience and approach
makes it easy on your IT team, giving them the broadest API available today.
Most people just think about web services when they talk about APIs. Not us! We're pragmatic and
understand the vital role older systems play in your activities. In short, this means you won't have
to overhaul your IT infrastructure to use our services. Just plug and play.
Postcode Anywhere builds APIs for everyone. As well as SOAP and XML, we offer native support for
JSON (great for websites), Recordset XML (for VB6.0 and traditional ASP developers) and even CSV and
TSV. On top of that, we offer code samples and snippets for every major programming language and
environment including VB, .NET, C#, PHP, Cold Fusion, Oracle, TSQL... the list goes on!
What's more, because we use SQL as our database engine you're not locked into proprietary technology,
giving you the freedom to get the most value out of your data.
