 "customer": 
   {
     "email": "[email protected]",
     "firstname": "test",
     "lastname": "test",
     "websiteId": 0,
        "addresses": [
           {
              "id": 1,
              "firstname": "test",
              "lastname": "test",
              "company": "test technology",
              "street": ["Test Street 9", "Tiny House 9"],
              "city": "City Nine",
              "region_id": 12,
              "region": "California",
              "postcode": "91790",
              "country_id": "US",
              "telephone": "1234567890"
           }, 
           {
             "id": 2,
             "firstname": "test",
             "lastname": "test",
             "company": "test technology",
             "street": ["Test Street 10", "Tiny House 10"],
             "city": "City Ten",
             "region_id": 12,
             "region": "California",
             "postcode": "91790",
             "country_id": "US",
             "telephone": "1234567890"
            }]
   }
}

Edit address in Magento:

Below is the API to create a customer. Then put the parameters for the address:

 PUT http://Base URL/rest/V1/customers/me

Now we can edit the address by using the address id. If we send the address id with change data then only that address will be changed that we want to edit. If we don't send the address id then the new address will be generated.


{ "customer":
    {
       "email":"[email protected]",
       "firstname":"test",
       "lastname":"test",
       "websiteId": 0,
       "addresses": [
            {
                "id": 1,
                "firstname": "testedit",
                "lastname": "testedit",
                "company": "test technology edit",
                "street": [
                "Test Street 9",
                "Tiny House 9"
                ],
                "city": "City Nine edit",
                "region_id": 12,
                "region": "California",
                "postcode": "91790000",
                "country_id": "US",
                "telephone": "123456789000"
            },
            {
                "firstname": "test",
                "lastname": "test",
                "company": "test technology",
                "street": [
                "Test Street 10",
                "Tiny House 10"
                ],
                "city": "City Ten",
                "region_id": 12,
                "region": "California",
                "postcode": "91790",
                "country_id": "US",
                "telephone": "1234567890"
            }
        ]
    }

In the example we send the address id with the parameters then id with 1 will be edited.

Delete address in Magento:

Below is the API to create a customer. Then put the parameters for the address:

PUT http://Base URL/rest/V1/customers/me

Now we can delete the address by not sending the address in the parameter. For example, we want to delete the address with id 1. Then we will not send the id 1 in the addresses. Then that address will not be generated and that address will not come in the address list.

 { "customer":
    {
       "email":"[email protected]",
       "firstname":"test",
       "lastname":"test",
       "websiteId": 0,
       "addresses": [
            {
                "id":2
                "firstname": "test",
                "lastname": "test",
                "company": "test technology",
                "street": [
                "Test Street 10",
                "Tiny House 10"
                ],
                "city": "City Ten",
                "region_id": 12,
                "region": "California",
                "postcode": "91790",
                "country_id": "US",
                "telephone": "1234567890"
            }
        ]
    }

By this address id with 1 will be deleted.

These are the ways to edit and delete the address in the Magento app using the Mgento API.
