Prepare to have your mind blown, as I show you how to set up code identifier validation in under 5 minutes!
Our process is going to start with pip installation of the Cloudmersive Validate API Client.

Now to call name_identifier.
from __future__ import print_functionimport timeimport cloudmersive_validate_api_clientfrom cloudmersive_validate_api_client.rest import ApiExceptionfrom pprint import pprint# Configure API key authorization: Apikeyconfiguration = cloudmersive_validate_api_client.Configuration()configuration.api_key['Apikey'] = 'YOUR_API_KEY'# Uncomment below to setup prefix (e.g. Bearer) for API key, if needed# configuration.api_key_prefix['Apikey'] = 'Bearer'# create an instance of the API classapi_instance = cloudmersive_validate_api_client.NameApi(cloudmersive_validate_api_client.ApiClient(configuration))input = cloudmersive_validate_api_client.ValidateIdentifierRequest() # ValidateIdentifierRequest | Identifier validation request informationtry:# Validate a code identifierapi_response = api_instance.name_identifier(input)pprint(api_response)except ApiException as e:print("Exception when calling NameApi->name_identifier: %s\n" % e)
Already done! Not bad. So, if you would like more incredibly easy solutions like this one for all your validation needs, take a peek at the rest of the validate API library. Everything from IP address geolocation to name and email address validation are on the table.
