Note the different behavior of passive validation for address, email and phone fields.
When validation is triggered, a successful match to the desired confidence level will result in the address being updated to a fully formatted address and, providing you have one of our EDQ components enabled, it will be accompanied by a validation status of VALIDATED along with the timestamp:
Differences to provided address
In cases where the confidence threshold has not been met the Address Validation API will provide additional details which are stored in the EDQ Log object associated with that address field. The ErrorMessage field will detail the input address, the desired confidence level and the actual confidence level returned by the API. For a list of possible confidence levels, please refer to the Address Validation API documentation.
Providing you have one of our EDQ components enabled the address field will be accompanied by a validation status of NOT VALIDATED along with the timestamp:
