Use of arrays in vehicle profiles

openrouteservice
1

Hi all I am trying to understand vehicle profiles and can’t find any information about it, though many using VRP services seem to get what it’s all about - can anyone point me to information that describes how to configure these to represent different vehicle types? Any pointers would be most appreciated as I am stuck!

Hey,

you can find information on how the vehicles-parameter for optimization works here - in the VROOM API docs.

Note, that the profile should be one of the openrouteservice’s profiles.
You can find them in the path parameters of e.g. the directions POST request docs of the openrouteservice.

Best regards

Thanks so much for the help! I’d been mixing concepts of capacity and profile so no wonder was stuck.
