# Getting an address

By using this method you can:

* Get the address for the user in the specified coin and network. When the request is repeated, the previously created address is returned, which will have `isActive: true`
* Generate a new address for the user in the specified coin and network, when specifying the parameter `renewAddress`. The new address will have `isActive: true`, previously generated addresses with the same coin and network will have `isActive: false`

Note: At any time, a user can have only one active address in particular coin and network. Deposits and withdrawals work at all addresses, regardless of the parameter `isActive`
