Overview
This node interacts with the Invertexto API to perform various data transformations and lookups. Specifically, for the ZIP Code Lookup operation, it allows users to retrieve address information based on an 8-digit Brazilian ZIP code (CEP). This is useful in scenarios where you need to validate or enrich address data automatically, such as filling out forms, verifying shipping addresses, or integrating location-based services.
Practical example:
You have a list of Brazilian ZIP codes from customer orders and want to fetch the corresponding street, city, and state information to ensure accurate delivery details.
