Does the API allow access to the work address?

Many supporters have work addresses -- this is where the employer's address is stored when people give that info when making donations.

However, it appears that the webhooks API only pushes out a supporters' primary address? This is not explicitly confirmed in the docs but I've done some testing and think this is the case.

What's more confusing is whether or not this field is available via the REST api. The docs list every other address field. I'm wondering if this is a documentation omission, or if for some reason the work address isn't included?

Hi Brad,

We've updated webhooks (v4) to include work addresss, and made some updates to the API as well to make the included fields read/writeable via the People endpoint.

I haven’t been able to import work_address via the API, but billing_address, home_address, mailing_address, registered_address and submitted_addresses all are. Has anyone else run into this? Looks like a bug?
