API Changes

This list shows all changes of the API between releases like new features, significant improvements and bug fixes. We recommend that API developers periodically check it for updates.

Version 1.13.0

  • Feature: Added parameter 'polylineMapType' to the methods 'createCustomRoadAttributeScenario', 'updateCustomRoadAttributeScenario' and 'getRoads' to specify whether the response polylines should match the Raster Maps API or the Vector Maps API.
  • Improvement: The explicit declaration 'nullable' is removed from the OpenAPI specification as it is no longer required for the C# client generation.

Version 1.12.0

  • Feature: Added method 'getApiChanges' to obtain a list of all API changes for PTV Developer.

Version 1.11.0

  • Feature: Added parameter 'text' to the method 'getCombinedTransports' to search for combined transports using a text input.

Version 1.10.3

  • Bugfix: Fixed a bug where combined transports for the Channel Tunnel were returned but lead to unexpected results when used as a combined transport waypoint in the Routing API.

Version 1.10.2

  • Bugfix: Polylines are returned in the correct format using the methods 'getCustomRoadAttributeScenario' and 'getAllCustomRoadAttributeScenarios'.

Version 1.10.1

  • Improvement: The maximum number of roads within a custom road attribute scenario is increased from 20000 to 25000.

Version 1.10.0

  • Feature: Added method 'getCombinedTransports' to obtain a list of nearby combined transports available for calculating routes in the Routing API.

Version 1.9.1

  • Feature: Added new vehicle profiles for TLN (Transport en Logistiek Nederland) to the predefined profiles. This is in a preview state.
  • Feature: Added a polygon selector to the methods for custom road attribute scenarios to select all roads completely within the polygon.

Version 1.9.0

  • Feature: Added method 'getVehicleModels' to obtain a list of vehicle models for calculating electricity consumption in the method 'calculateRoutePost' of the Routing API. This method is in a preview state.
  • Feature: Added response parameter 'tollFeatures' to the method 'getMapInformation' to provide information on toll tariffs.
  • Improvement: The method 'getMapInformation' is no longer experimental.

Version 1.8.0

  • Feature: Added response parameter 'lowEmissionZoneApprovals' to the predefined profiles.
  • Improvement: The quality of error messages is improved by revising the request validation.

Version 1.7.0

  • Feature: Added response parameter 'totalTechnicallyPermittedWeight' to the predefined profiles.
  • Feature: Added parameter 'relativeSpeed' to the methods for custom road attribute scenarios to reduce the speed on the selected roads.
  • Feature: Added parameter 'description' to the methods for custom road attribute scenarios to provide additional information for the selected roads.

Version 1.6.4

  • Improvement: The response parameter 'co2EmissionClass' is no longer experimental.

Version 1.6.3

  • Improvement: The methods to manage custom road attribute scenarios to prohibit roads for individual needs and their associated types are no longer experimental.
  • Bugfix: Removed unnecessary 'nullable' declaration from the properties of the type 'Vehicle'.

Version 1.6.0

  • Feature: Added method 'getMapInformation' to obtain basic information on the map, in particular for which countries toll data is available. This method is in an experimental state and may change at any time.

Version 1.5.0

  • Feature: Added methods to manage custom road attribute scenarios to prohibit roads for individual needs. These methods are in an experimental state and may change at any time.
  • Feature: Added response parameters for the truck routes 'NZ_HPMV', 'AU_B_DOUBLE_HML', 'AU_B_TRIPLE_HML', 'AU_AB_TRIPLE', 'AU_AB_TRIPLE_HML' in Australia and New Zealand to the predefined profiles.

Version 1.4.0

  • Feature: Added response parameter 'co2EmissionClass' to the predefined profiles. This parameter is in an experimental state and may change at any time.

Version 1.3.0

  • Feature: Added response parameter 'region' to the predefined profiles.
  • Feature: Added response parameters for alternative engines (LNG, Electric, Hybrid) to the predefined profiles.
  • Feature: Added response parameters for the emission standard 'EURO_6D_TEMP', 'EURO_6D' and 'EURO_6E' of vehicles in the European Union to the predefined profiles.
  • Feature: Added response parameter 'numberOfTires' to the predefined profiles.
  • Improvement: Removed unused response parameter 'costPerFuelUnit' from 'monetaryCostOptions'.

Version 1.2.0

  • Feature: Added response parameters 'currency' and 'monetaryCostOptions' to the predefined profiles.
  • Feature: Added new vehicle profiles for the IMEA region to the predefined profiles.

Version 1.1.2

  • Improvement: Renamed error codes 'GENERAL_ACCESS_DENIED' to 'GENERAL_UNAUTHENTICATED' and 'GENERAL_UNAUTHORIZED' to 'GENERAL_FORBIDDEN'.

Version 1.1.0

  • Bugfix: The response parameter 'vehicle' of the predefined profiles is not required anymore, as the profiles 'BICYCLE' and 'PEDESTRIAN' do not have vehicle parameters.

Version 1.0.4

  • Bugfix: The profile 'USA_8_SEMITRAILER_5AXLE' now returns the proper vehicle attributes of typical semi-trailer truck (US GVWR class 8) with 5 axles.

Version 1.0.0

  • Feature: Added method 'getPredefinedVehicleProfiles' to obtain all predefined vehicle profiles, e.g. for the Routing, Route Optimization and Sequence Optimization API.
