API Reference - Ideal Postcodes
ideal-postcodes.co.uk · 3.7.0Getting Started Overview Access All API methods are either a GET, POST or OPTIONS request. The API communicates over both HTTPS and plain HTTP using IPv4 and IPv6. We recommend using HTTPS only although HTTP is available. We use appropriate HTTP status codes where possible to indicate the request status. Rate Limiting Each IP address is rate limited at 30 requests per second. Tripping the rate limit will result in a 503 response. The autocomplete API also has an additional rate limit. If you expect to breach the limit please contact us and we can move you to an endpoint with a higher limit. JSONP JSONP requests are supported.
