Addresses in Omneo are postal locations associated with a profile. A profile can have one or more addresses representing a customer’s home, workplace, delivery address, or any other location relevant to the brand.
Addresses are for complete postal locations. Do not use an address record to store partial location data such as a suburb, postcode, or country alone. For geographic segmentation at that level, assign a Region (which supports down to state level) or store a postcode as a custom attribute.
Address fields
Default address
A profile can have only one default address at a time. The default address is returned on the main profile response. All other addresses are returned via the profile addresses endpoint.
To change the default address, update the desired address with is_default: true.
Use cases
Addresses are used to power:
- Click and collect: delivery to the customer’s preferred location
- Postal communications: physical mail and direct mail campaigns
- Address-based personalisation: surfacing local store information based on proximity
- eReceipts: including the billing address on digital receipts
The Profile Addresses API supports browse, create, read, update, delete, and upsert-by-external-id operations. See the Addresses API for full endpoint reference. Mutation semantics on the main Profile endpoints
Including the addresses array on POST /v3/profiles or PUT /v3/profiles/{profile} is a destructive replace, not a merge.
- Omitting the
addresses key from the request body leaves existing addresses untouched.
- Sending
addresses: [] soft-deletes every existing address on the profile.
- Sending
addresses: [partial list] soft-deletes every existing address, then recreates from the supplied list. Anything not in the supplied array is destroyed.
For add, update, or delete of a single address, use the Profile Addresses API instead. See Mutation semantics on POST and PUT for the equivalent behaviour on other profile collections.
