Making an API call

Download the code

Python Code

This sample code shows how to make a GET request to the Attom property API to receive property details. It is important to note that you should input your API key in the headers defined. See the example below:

headers = {

"accept: application/json",

"apikey: ENTER YOUR API KEY HERE",

}

You can adjust the address by adjusting the address1 and address2 field in the URL here:

conn.request("GET","/propertyapi/v1.0.0/property/detail?address1=4529%20Winona%20Court&address2=Denver%2C%20CO", headers=headers)

After following this guide and integrating the API with Google Maps in your product, you will be able to display a pin overlay the map image to show where a school is located. The marker in this guide is the standard marker image from Google


1. The very first step would be setting up your product to hit the API through cURL in order to pull back location information about the schools within overlapping attendance zones of the address entered.
a. Here is an example API URL : Click here


2. This API call returns an array containing property information along with specific details about schools in the applicable attendance zones around the property.


3. The next step is to initialize the Google Map per the same requested address. You can find details about that process here google map api.

4. Once you have completed the map initialization, then you need to set the marker pins per the latitude and longitude for the school that you want to display.

a. Here is the example of set marker pins : marker sample

5. Once you’re done with the marker pin setup, then this code should help you display the Attom school data on your Google map display for your product.

Using Google Auto-complete to search the Attom API

If you aren’t already aware of the functionality available in the Google location autocomplete web service, you can view all of the documentation here.

One very popular implementation for our partners is to make this service the first step in the process of collecting an address from their customers to ensure that it is valid and in good shape to pass to the API.

In this guide, we will walk you through the necessary steps to take an address from the output of the Google location autocomplete web service and pass it to the Attom API to collect property details.

Getting Started

The first step in the process is to ensure that you have the Google web service set up and in place on your application. You can find all of the steps for implementing the web service here - Google Places Example.

What comes next after getting the google location address response

Once you receive the suggested address, you need to break the address into two pieces to pass to the Attom API. The Attom API accepts two parameters called “address1” and “address2” to search for a property. This can be done through separation via comma(,) values and the code below uses “4529 Winona Court, Denver CO United States 80212” address as example.

Now you’re all set to start pulling data from the Attom API. All of the different available API calls, response bodies, filtering options and interactive docs can be found in the API Docs page. This will help you construct the right response to feed your product!
