Hey guys,

since some days the doku for the direction does not work. I see only an empty page when I click on the arrow direction → post (gpx, geojson or json. I tested with different browsers.

> **[Dashboard | ORS](https://openrouteservice.org/dev/#/api-docs/openrouteservice/v2/directions/%7Bprofile%7D/json/post)**

The following endpoint returns returns 404. (also was fine last friday). The same request with driving-car as enpoint it works.

[https://api.heigit.org/openrouteservice/v2/directions/driving-hgv/geojson](https://api.heigit.org/openrouteservice/v2/directions/driving-hgv/geojson)

Can you help?
