Get minimum wage rates by SLS location code

The /mwf/v1/location/code endpoint returns minimum wage rates when you provide a Symmetry Location Service (SLS) locationCodeFull and an effective date. Use this endpoint when you already have a Symmetry-issued location identifier from STE, SLS, or another Symmetry product, and you want to retrieve minimum wage rates without submitting a street address or latitude/longitude pair.

📘
If you do not already have a locationCodeFull, use the /mwf/v1/location endpoint to resolve an address or coordinates first.

Query Parameters

Parameter	Format	Enforcement
locationCodeFull	String	Required
effectiveDate	YYYY-MM-DD	Required
jurisdiction	Boolean	Optional. Defaults to `false`. If `true`, the response includes resolved jurisdiction names and types for each segment in the supplied `locationCodeFull`.
effective	Boolean	Optional. Defaults to `false`. If `true`, only the highest applicable minimum wage rate for each rate type is returned.

The locationCodeFull is a dash-separated sequence of TYPE:value segments. Supported segment types include STATE, CNTY, CITY, MUNI, SCHL, METRO, and TRANS; segments may be omitted.

Example: STATE:42-CNTY:101-CITY:1209052-MUNI:1209052-SCHL:515001
