Everything Location - /address +certify (AMAS)

The Certify process may be added to either the verify (/address/verify) or auto-complete (/address/capture) API service. The request is made by including "certify" as a parameter in the respective call. Requesting certified postal fields does incur an additional credit charge.

Certified processing is only available for CASS (United States) and AMAS (Australia).

Note: only old everythinglocation keys will work with this service.
