Routing API v7 Developer's Guide

Request a Bicycle Route (Beta version)

To calculate directions for bikes between two locations, using the calculateroute service, include in the request the following:

  • your authentication credentials, apiKey or app_id and app_code if you are using the app_id/app_code authentication (see the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide)
  • the start (waypoint0) and destination (waypoint1) waypoints,
  • bicycle for the routing mode, which describes the transport type for the route calculation.

This example requests the fastest route for a bicycle. Note that the waypoints are specified in latitude and longitude by using the geo! string value.

?apiKey={YOUR_API_KEY}
&waypoint0=geo!52.5,13.4
&waypoint1=geo!52.5,13.45
&mode=fastest;bicycle
Note: This example uses a HERE API Key to authenticate your request. For the available authentication options, see the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide.
