400 Error when validating address with AJAX about craft-avatax HOT 3 OPEN

@jlapan - Sorry for the delay, did you ever get this sorted? The json validation is a feature we added but haven't really used on a site to date so we haven't needed to troubleshoot that very much, but if not here are a few thoughts.

If it's the server response straight from Craft then I don't think it's the url—that url in the example is the Craft route to the json controller's validateAddress() function so it should be right—it might be that the csrf token is not being set correctly.

But I did recently realize that the Avalara API will return a 400 error message in the response if the address is not sent correctly. That seems to happen if the address fields are not sent correctly, e.g. make sure the page you're trying this on has the inputs named "shippingAddress[address1]" or they may need to change to "address[address1]" depending on the edit address form vs. the checkout form in the example.

Lastly, there was an error that could be caused if the address model wasn't populated correctly which has been fixed in v2.0.8.

@imagehat I did not. I currently have it disabled until I can get sandbox access to the client's Avalara account to further test and diagnose the issue.

Ok. When you get back to it just ping me or Jason know again if you run into issues and we can try to help figure it out.
