Introducing in June 2026:

Deprecating in September 2026:

• dawa_id in DataSet

Fundraisers can choose to use various services to validate user inputs, including Business Code, National ID, Phone Number and Address.

In Denmark, we currently validate Danish addresses using Danmarks Adressers Web API (DAWA). However, DAWA is being deprecated on 17th of August 2026 and will be replaced by a new service called Adressevælger. For more, please see:

• https://dawadocs.dataforsyningen.dk
• https://dataforsyningen.dk/data/4924
• https://confluence.sdfi.dk/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=234782998

The two services operate somewhat differently, but share the same underlying address UUID. You can verify this by looking up our office address using the UUID 0a3f507b-4642-32b8-e044-0003ba298018:

• DAWA (outgoing service): https://api.dataforsyningen.dk/adgangsadresser/0a3f507b-4642-32b8-e044-0003ba298018
• Adressevælger (replacing service) : https://adressevaelger.dk/husnumre/0a3f507b-4642-32b8-e044-0003ba298018?token=adressevaelger123 (token will expire by ultimo 2026)

As part of this transition, we are replacing the “dawa_id” field in DataSet with a new field “addressId“, which is neither service nor country specific.

If your integration relies on DAWA, please update it to use the new field “addressId” along with the Adressevælger service.
