DAWA autocomplete replacement — same typeahead, new base URL
DAWA's /autocomplete shuts down 17 August 2026. Danadresse serves the same typo-tolerant address autocomplete with an identical response — just swap the base URL.
Using DAWA's /autocomplete for address fields? The same endpoint lives on danadresse.dk with the same parameters (q, fuzzy, per_side, type) and the same three-phase model (street → house number → floor/door).
Before & after — one line changes
DAWA (closing 17 Aug 2026)
curl 'https://api.dataforsyningen.dk/autocomplete?q=Rådhuspladsen+1'
Danadresse
curl 'https://api.danadresse.dk/autocomplete?q=Rådhuspladsen+1' \
-H 'X-Api-Key: dawa_live_…'
Same path, same query parameters, same JSON response shape and the same DAR UUIDs — you only swap the host and add an X-Api-Key header.
What stays identical
Same parameters
q, fuzzy, per_side, type, adgangsadresserOnly, params — unchanged.
Same response
Array of {type, tekst, forslagstekst, caretpos, data} — drop-in for your existing parser.
Typo-tolerant
'kobenhavn' → København, 'raadhus' → Rådhus — Danish folding built in.
