Routing API v7 Developer's Guide

Request a Route via a Third Coordinate

To calculate directions between two coordinates via a third coordinate, use the CalculateRouteRequest service and specify the start (waypoint0), middle point (waypoint1) and destination (waypoint2). Specifying waypoint1 as stopOver instead of passThrough results in breaking the journey here, not just driving through. The string geo! indicates that you are specifying each point using latitude and longitude.

Note that you also have to specify an apiKey or app_id and app_code if you are using the app_id/app_code authentication (see the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide), type of route calculation and whether to take traffic into account.

The following example requests the fastest route for a car without taking traffic conditions into account from the Westin Grand hotel at Unter den Linden in Berlin (52.516858379, 13.3884717) to the Staatsoper in Berlin (52.51733824, 13.394678415) via the Deutsche Guggenheim (52.51704771, 13.39131492).

Note: This example uses a HERE API Key to authenticate your request. For the available authentication options, see the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide.
