Search by postcode and radius

Question

Hi, 
I have 2 questions related to parameters for the API.

1. How can I search properties by a postcode?
In Zoopla you can enter a postcode and get results for that postcode like the link bellow:
https://www.zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/property/windsor/imperial-road/sl4-3ru/?q=sl4%203ru&results_sort=newest_listings&search_source=for-sale
But when I try the auto-complete endpoint with 'SL4 3RU' for example I get no results. It does work with just 'SL4', but that's a huge area
2. How can I search for radius less than a mile (0.25 or 0.5)? In Zoopla these 2 options are available as +0.25 and +0.5 but when I enter 0.5 in the radius field for the properties/v2/list endpoint, it translates the radius to 'null'

Thanks for the quick response, this does work with decimals now, so thank you for fixing it

Hello,

You may try again now with ...&radius=0.25 or 0.5. The IT team has fixed the issue.

Hello,

You have to wait to the end of this month for a patch. We often release new update every the end of month.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply!
Are there any plans for the near future for amending the radius so that it accepts decimals as well? I'm only asking as it is crucial in the way our system operates, and is something clients know is available in the Zoopla website

Hello,

1/ You can use .../house-prices/v2/get-area?geoString=sl4 3ru to get id, name to use with the listing endpoint.
2/ Currently, the parameter only accepts positive integer.

Regards.
