📘
For requests with more than 60 visits, it is necessary to use the asynchronous endpoint /vrp-long for long-running tasks to avoid timeouts. We recommend that you to use this endpoint even for smaller requests.

The /vrp endpoint can solve the Traveling Salesman Problem as well as the Vehicle Routing Problem. It supports the following:

Time-windows
Capacity constraints
Visit durations
Multiple depots
Open-ended routes
Type constraints
Driver shifts

There are two objects required in your input: Visits and Fleet. A third Options object is optional.

See the sidebar for a very simple example with the minimum required parameters.
