Overview
This node interacts with the Bedrijfsdata API to retrieve Dutch BAG (Basisregistratie Adressen en Gebouwen) data based on a given address. It is useful for workflows that require detailed and authoritative address information in the Netherlands, such as verifying addresses, enriching customer data, or integrating location-based services.
A practical example would be validating and enriching user-submitted addresses in an e-commerce checkout process to ensure accurate delivery information.

Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the Bedrijfsdata API.
- The node makes HTTP GET requests to the endpoint
/bagon the base URLhttps://api.bedrijfsdata.nl/v1.2. - Proper configuration of the API key credential within n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Required Fields: Ensure that both "Postcode" and "House Number" are provided; otherwise, the API request will fail.
- Invalid Address Data: If the address does not exist or is incorrectly formatted, the API may return errors or empty results.
- API Authentication Errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
- Network Issues: Check connectivity to
https://api.bedrijfsdata.nlif requests time out or fail.
Common error messages might include:
- "Failed to fetch cities" or similar, indicating issues with API response or network.
- Validation errors if required parameters are missing or malformed.
Resolving these usually involves correcting input parameters, ensuring valid credentials, and confirming network access.
