Postio — UK Address, Postcode, Email & Phone Validation tools (6, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
postio_address_searchSearch UK addresses by free-form text — building, street, postcode, organisation, or any combination. Returns a list of suggestions, each with a UDPRN (Royal Mail's per-address ID). Pass a chosen UDPRN to `postio_udprn_lookup` to fetch the full record. Free / non-billable.
postio_connectFree key/health probe. Returns 200 if the API key is active and the upstream search service is reachable. Useful as a smoke test or to warm the worker.
postio_email_validatewrite actionValidate an email address: syntax (RFC 5322), typo correction (gnail→gmail), classification (disposable, role, free provider), MX lookup, and live SMTP mailbox probe. Returns an aggregated `deliverability` verdict (deliverable / undeliverable / risky / unknown / invalid) plus every signal independently.
postio_phone_validateParse a phone number with libphonenumber and run a live HLR (Home Location Register) lookup. Returns current carrier (post-porting), original carrier, ported flag, reachability, MCC/MNC. Pass numbers in E.164 (`+447700900123`) for unambiguous results.
postio_postcode_lookupReturn every PAF delivery point at a UK postcode, ordered by building number. Whitespace and case are normalised. Billable on a hit; valid postcodes with no delivery points return an empty list and are not charged.
postio_udprn_lookupLook up a single UK delivery point by its UDPRN (Royal Mail's stable per-address ID). Use this after `postio_address_search` to fetch the full record for a chosen suggestion. Billable on a hit; misses (404) are not charged.
