Automation Action: Extract Address Parts

Parse a postal address and extract specific address parts.

Parses a postal address block and extracts specific parts (Company Name, Address Line 1, Address Line2, State, Zip/Postcode, Country).

In the Extract Address From enter the address or a %variable% containing an address.

You can then assign Company Name, Address Line 1, Address Line 2, State, Zip/Postcode and Country to variables.

You can also assign the normalized address block to a variable from the Assign Address To list. The normalized address will include above parts, one per line. US state abbreviations will be expanded.

This action will attempt to locate the country/state using the zip/postcode if no state/country is specified in the incoming address. This currently supports UK, USA, Canada & Ireland postcodes.

Postcodes for European countries (France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherlands) will be extracted if the address contains the country name.

This action is useful where an address block has been extracted from a document using the Extract Field action with the Extract Using Text Range option.

You can test the address extraction by pasting an address into the Extract Address From entry and clicking the Test button.
