I'm not familiar with any scripts. Just an old Pick Basic programmer.

Morning,
Just wanted to ask what scripting language are you familiar with? For myself I am most comfortable using PHP so I would write a short php script to accept input from pick, make the curl call to get data and then echo that data back to pick. You would just run command from pick - !getStuff.php address
I would be happy to share a base php code if you are interested.

Richard,
For D3, the most common way is to use cURL which has been around for a long time and is available for Linux and Windows and is FREE. Execute curl and capture the results. For example, the following curl request returns forecast data from the National Weather Service from the Ft. Worth office for grid square 30,115:
curl https://api.weather.gov/gridpoints/FWD/90,115/forecast
There was an article in Spectrum Magazine a few years ago about calling cURL that you can read at https://www.intl-spectrum.com/Article/r671/IS_HTTPCLIENT__Using_CURL_and_BASICs_EXECUTE which also includes source code.
As mentioned previously, there are several services that you can subscribe to that help with sales tax calculation. They range in price and features but once you subscribe to the service they are easy to integrate with your application.
I hope this points you in the right direction.

Richard,
There are several REST based services that are trivial to call these days. For example, zip-tax.com provides U.S. address-based tax calculations for a reasonable cost. The giant in the industry is Avalara.com. Let me know if you need assistance making REST calls from D3/mvBase or other MV platforms.

I have several customers who need real-time sales tax calculation. Has anyone integrated an online sales tax calculator with D3 and is willing to share the code?
