Route - Post Snap To Roads Batch
SnapToRoads Batch API
Applies to: see pricing tiers.
The Snap To Roads Batch API sends batches of up to 100 queries as a single call to the Snap To Roads API.
Important
By using this feature, you agree to the preview legal terms. See the Preview Supplemental Terms for additional details.
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.

POST Body for Batch Request
To send the snap to roads queries you will use a POST
request where the request body will contain the batchItems
array in json
format and the Content-Type
header will be set to application/json
. Here's a sample request body containing 2 snap to roads queries:

}
A snap to roads batchItem object can accept any of the supported snap to roads Request body
The batch should contain at least 1 query.
Batch Response Model
The batch response contains a summary
component that indicates the totalRequests
that were part of the original batch request and successfulRequests
i.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 is of one of the following types:
SnapToRoadsResponse
- If the query completed successfully.Error
- If the query failed. The response will contain acode
and amessage
in this case.

URI Parameters
Name | In | Required | Type | Description |

string |
Specifies which account is intended for usage in conjunction with the Microsoft Entra ID security model. It represents a unique ID for the Azure Maps account and can be retrieved from the Azure Maps management plane Account API. To use Microsoft Entra ID security in Azure Maps see the following articles for guidance. |

Security
AADToken
These are the Microsoft Entra OAuth 2.0 Flows. When paired with Azure role-based access control it can be used to control access to Azure Maps REST APIs. Azure role-based access controls are used to designate access to one or more Azure Maps resource account or sub-resources. Any user, group, or service principal can be granted access via a built-in role or a custom role composed of one or more permissions to Azure Maps REST APIs.
To implement scenarios, we recommend viewing authentication concepts. In summary, this security definition provides a solution for modeling application(s) via objects capable of access control on specific APIs and scopes.
Note
- This security definition requires the use of the
x-ms-client-id
header to indicate which Azure Maps resource the application is requesting access to. This can be acquired from the Maps management API. - The
Authorization URL
is specific to the Azure public cloud instance. Sovereign clouds have unique Authorization URLs and Microsoft Entra ID configurations. - The Azure role-based access control is configured from the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs.
- Usage of the Azure Maps Web SDK allows for configuration based setup of an application for multiple use cases.
- For more information on Microsoft identity platform, see Microsoft identity platform overview.

Scopes
Name | Description |
---|---|
https://atlas.microsoft.com/.default | https://atlas.microsoft.com/.default |
subscription-key
This is a shared key that is provisioned when creating an Azure Maps resource through the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs.
With this key, any application is authorized to access all REST APIs. In other words, these can currently be treated as master keys to the account which they are issued for.
For publicly exposed applications, our recommendation is to use server-to-server access of Azure Maps REST APIs where this key can be securely stored.
Type:
apiKey
In:
header
SAS Token
This is a shared access signature token is created from the List SAS operation on the Azure Maps resource through the Azure management plane via Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, Azure SDKs, or REST APIs.
With this token, any application is authorized to access with Azure role-based access controls and fine-grain control to the expiration, rate, and region(s) of use for the particular token. In other words, the SAS Token can be used to allow applications to control access in a more secured way than the shared key.
For publicly exposed applications, our recommendation is to configure a specific list of allowed origins on the Map account resource to limit rendering abuse and regularly renew the SAS Token.
