Timezone API
Getting specific and accurate address data is crucial for companies, e-commerce companies,
delivery agencies, businesses and organisations that reach out to customers for shipping,
marketing purposes, property, social programs and other reasons.
We offer the solution to help integrate our Address API into your software application without stress or hassle.
The Address API helps you get additional location information about any address you request. So, when you request an address you will get data like country name, country code, city name, zip or postal code, street name, street code, time of the day and many more parameters.
Why you should use our API
NOTICE
Searching for an address is a complex operation. The request can take up to several hundred milliseconds,
so you don’t need to be alarmed. We recommend using the address API asynchronously.
Returns address, timezone and datetime information. Please notice: The request can return multiple results. Be specific when requesting an address if you intent only to have one result returned. Date/time defaults to when the request was made.
To send a request, you will need a token key. Each token key is unique and can’t be used twice and it is generated when you subscribe to a plan. To authenticate your requests, you will need to append your Token key to the Endpoint.
To get your token key:

Your Token has unique API keys for each API, so your Time, Date, and Timezone API key will not work for your Address API key.
The Address to determine the current time and timezone of. This parameter accepts the location as a string
Example: Hacker+Way+1+Menlo+Park+CaliforniaNote: The address is separated with “+”
Dates separated with "/"" are interpreted as "mm/dd/yyyy".
Dates separated with "-"" are interpreted as "dd/mm/yyyy".
1. Unmatching token
If you input an unmatching token, you will get a 401 error message.
{
"meta": {
"code": 401,
"message": "Blocked"
}
}
2. Unpaid plan token
If you input an unpaid plan token, you will get a 401 error message.
{
"meta": {
"code": 401,
"message": "Feature not available for your plan"
}
}
We've made it easy for you to test out our API's. Simply click the "Token" link on each API page and a temporary token is generated instantly. You can generate up to five test tokens. Each token is valid for 20 requests. When you're ready to put the code into production then sign up for a plan to get a service token.
Service Token (for testing)
A test token has been generated for you. It's good for 20 requests. Please notice: When using a test token the request reponse time is reduced drastically.
