VAT - VIES API link

[Metadata21]

Hi All,

In need of your tecchy brains...I am not sure where to start or how to link an API to a flow - but basically i have a list (attached) of VAT numbers and country codes and I need to create a workflow that spits out an output with the correct VAT and if possible to say whether is incorrect/correct. 

hope this makes sense 

link to the API needed

I don't see any API info in the attachment, each API is a little different but the below article might be helpful:

So good news & bad news... Good news - I found this thread and built the attached workflow. Bad news - running 4,000 entries is going to take a LONG time...

Hi @apathetichell thank you so much! Will I need to change the country and supply an example VAT and then run it for each country through the input below?

Tool 10 (input data) includes your file. The resource/endpoint base is appended to each of those records and an endpoint is generated to feed into the download tool. The sample controls how many records/requests you feed into the download tool at one time.

@apathetichell Sorry its me again - how do I resolve this error?

[apathetichell]

Sorry - not sure - is that a specific record/entity? is there a null or improperly created endpoint somewhere? basically one record is creating an issue and you may need to dig into why.
