How to build a simple routing app

One of the first things you can do with our RESTful APIs is to implement a simple routing app: Enter two addresses, find the optimal route between these addresses and display the result on a map. In doing so you get a first impression how easy the APIs of PTV Developer could be used and what else is possible.

The new tutorial A-B Routing shows all the implementation steps, provides the complete source code and the running app for demonstration purposes. That takes just a few minutes of your time!

How to use PTV Developer with Postman?

One of the benefits of RESTful APIs using Open API standards is that there are multiple tools to test. PTV Developer offers a variety of Restful APIs which can be easily tested by one of those tools which is highlighted in the new tutorial – Postman.
