Driving-hgv returns 400 Bad Request: "Parameter 'profile' has incorrect value of 'unknown'"

I am having an issue with the driving-hgv endpoint.

Yesterday everything was working fine, but today requests to driving-hgv started returning 400 Bad Request.

For example, this endpoint also fails:

https://api.openrouteservice.org/v2/directions/driving-hgv?api_key=xxx&start=-xx&end=-xx

Response body:

{
  "error": {
    "code": 2003,
    "message": "Parameter 'profile' has incorrect value of 'unknown'."
  },
  "info": {
    "engine": {
      "build_date": "2025-10-31T12:33:09Z",
      "graph_version": "3",
      "version": "9.5.0"
    },
    "timestamp": 1775385468418
  }
}

What is strange is that driving-car works correctly with the same API key, so the issue seems to affect only driving-hgv.

I also do not think this is related to limits or credits, because my API key still has enough quota.

Has anything changed recently for the driving-hgv profile, or is this a temporary service issue?

Thanks.

The HGV profile seems to be down since a few days. I too hope that it will be fixed soon.

Hey,

yeah, sorry for this.
See Profile `driving-hgv` down for more details.

Hi,

is it foreseeable how long the outage will last?

Hey,

usually, the profile should be back in action by tomorrow.
I will update the announcement accordingly, thank you :slight_smile:
