ActiveProspect partners with Zip-Codes.com to offer their validation services directly through LeadConduit.
What It Does
ZIP-Codes.com Lookup
ZIP-Codes.com Lookup gives you the ability to append information to your leads based on the zip code. A good use case for this integration would be when a lead has a postal code but no city/state.
Using Zip Code Lookup
Open your flow edit to the Steps tab, click Add Enhancement and select Zip-Codes.com Lookup:
Making a Decision
Zip Code Lookup isn't designed as a validation service and is ideally used as a Data Append enhancement only.
Appended Data
The enhancement returns the following information:
| Field | Detail | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Outcome | The status of the recipient event | success |
| Reason | When the outcome is other than Success, a reason for the Outcome is provided. | |
| Latitude | Latitude associated with the zip code | 30.353236 |
| Longitude | Longitude associated with the zip code | -97.733682 |
| City | The normalized City | AUSTIN |
| County | The normalized County | Travis |
| State | The normalized State | TX |

What It Does
ZIP-Codes.com Validation
The Zip-Codes.com Validation enhancement checks the address against the ZIP code passed with the lead.
Using Zip Code Validation
Open your flow edit to the Steps tab, click Add Enhancement and select Zip-Codes.com Validation:
Understanding the Response
| What constitutes a Success? | What constitutes a Failure |
|
The Zip Code provided matches the Zip Code associated with an address. |
The Zip Code provided DOES NOT MATCH the Zip Code associated with an address. |
Making a Decision
A filter or filters must be added after the step in order to make any decision based on the data returned.
A success response means either:
- The postal code found for the given address matches the given postal code
- The integration could not validate the given address.
- If the address cannot be found in that ZIP code, but is found in a nearby ZIP code, the correct ZIP code will be appended.
Appended Data
The enhancement returns the following information:
| Field | Detail | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Outcome | The status of the recipient event | success |
| Reason | When the outcome is other than Success, a reason for the Outcome is provided. | |
| Address 1 | The normalized Line 1 of the Address | 1902 AGGIE LN |
| Address 2 | The normalized Line 2 of the Address | |
| City | The normalized City | AUSTIN |
| State | The normalized State | TX |
| Postal Code | The normalized Zip Code | 78757 |
