AddressPro Version 1.21.3.0 Released February 2025

Cycle O

Enhancements

This release only affects the Loqate Cloud International-Address lookup feature of AddressPro.
The Loqate Cloud web service has been updated from a SOAP to a REST system. By default, this version and all future versions of AddressPro will use the new REST web service for Loqate Cloud lookups. All address-processing functionality will remain the same.

The only change that a user might need to make is to ensure that their Loqate Cloud license key (in the AddressPro web-service configuration file) is in the newer format, see below:

For Example: LQC_LICENSE_KEY=AA11-BB22-CC33-DD44

http://address_pro_ip_address/AnchorSoftwareUtilities.wsdl
