Overview

Geocodify.com lets you convert addresses into geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude) and vice versa, covering locations worldwide. It also offers autocomplete suggestions as users type an address, making it easy to build address input forms. You need a free API key to get started.

Beginner Tip

Start with the autocomplete endpoint to enhance address input fields — it returns suggestions in real time and greatly reduces user input errors.

Available Data

The kind of data this API exposes, based on its documentation. We could not call the endpoint to confirm the exact field names.

IP address details
latitude and longitude
city and country
timezone
ISP information
vehicle make and model

Example Response

Illustrative shape only — we were not able to call this endpoint (it requires credentials or exposes no public sample URL), so the fields below show the kind of data this API returns rather than a recorded response.

JSON Response · Illustrative

Field Reference

features Array of matched location objects, each containing geometry and properties.
features[].geometry.coordinates Longitude and latitude of the matched location as [lng, lat].
features[].properties.label Human-readable formatted address string for the matched result.
features[].properties.confidence Match confidence score between 0 and 1; higher is better.
features[].properties.country Country name for the matched location.

Implementation Example

Calls a real endpoint of this API. Replace any placeholder credentials with your own key.

Request
const url = "https://api.geocodify.com/v2/geocode?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&q=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway,+Mountain+View,+CA";
// Replace headers or query params with the values required by this API.
const response = await fetch(url, {
  headers: {
  "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
  }
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Generated guidance based on this API's documentation, not observed by us. Treat it as a starting point and check against the provider's own error reference.

401 Unauthorized API key is missing or invalid.
Make sure you include api_key=YOUR_API_KEY as a query parameter with your valid key from the Geocodify dashboard.
Empty features array in response The address query was too vague or could not be matched.
Try a more specific address including city, state, and country. Avoid abbreviations.
429 Too Many Requests You have exceeded your plan request quota.
Throttle your requests or upgrade to a higher plan. Implement caching for repeated address lookups.

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
