RouteRequestRouteDirectionsBatchSyncDefaultResponse interface

Route Directions Batch API

Applies to: see pricing tiers.

The Route Directions Batch API sends batches of queries to Route Directions API using just a single API call. You can call Route Directions Batch API to run either asynchronously (async) or synchronously (sync). The async API allows caller to batch up to 700 queries and sync API up to 100 queries.

Submit Synchronous Batch Request

The Synchronous API is recommended for lightweight batch requests. When the service receives a request, it will respond as soon as the batch items are calculated and there will be no possibility to retrieve the results later. The Synchronous API will return a timeout error (a 408 response) if the request takes longer than 60 seconds. The number of batch items is limited to 100 for this API.

Batch Response Model

The returned data content is similar for async and sync requests. When downloading the results of an async batch request, if the batch has finished processing, the response body contains the batch response. This batch response contains a summary component that indicates the totalRequests that were part of the original batch request and successfulRequestsi.e. queries which were executed successfully. The batch response also includes a batchItems array which contains a response for each and every query in the batch request. The batchItems will contain the results in the exact same order the original queries were sent in the batch request. Each item in batchItems contains statusCode and response fields. Each response in batchItems is of one of the following types:

• RouteDirections - If the query completed successfully.

• Error - If the query failed. The response will contain a code and a message in this case.

Here's a sample Batch Response with 1 successful and 1 failed result:

    "summary": {
        "successfulRequests": 1,
        "totalRequests": 2
