# Where the live API differs from its docs

What `api.postcode.gov.ng` does where [NIPOST's documentation](https://docs.postcode.gov.ng) says otherwise or says nothing. Each row gives the date it was last observed. The 6 October observations were made with a level 1 test key. To repeat the comparison with your own key, run [`scripts/live_check.py`](https://github.com/Adeniyikayodee/ng-postcode/blob/main/scripts/live_check.py).
