Arguments

input_data: An input dataset of class "sf", or a list of coordinate pairs for format c(longitude, latitude). Cannot be used with an origin/destination pair.
origin: An address or coordinate pair that represents the origin of your requested route. Cannot be used with input_data.
destination: An address or coordinate pair that represents the destination of your requested route.
profile: One of "driving" (the default), "driving-traffic", "walking", or "cycling".
output: One of "sf" (the default), which returns an sf LINESTRING representing the route geometry, or "full", which returns the full request from the Directions API as a list.
depart_at: (optional) For the "driving" or "driving-traffic" profiles, the departure date and time to reflect historical traffic patterns. If "driving-traffic" is used, live traffic will be mixed in with historical traffic for dates/times near to the current time. Should be specified as an ISO 8601 date/time, e.g. "2022-03-31T09:00".
alternatives: Whether or not to return alternative routes with your request. If TRUE, a list of up to 3 possible routes will be returned.
annotations: A comma-separated string of additional route metadata, which may include duration, distance, speed, and congestion. Must be used with overview = "full".
bearings: A semicolon-delimited character string of bearings
continue_straight: continue_straight
exclude: Road types to exclude from your route; possible choices are 'toll', 'motorway', or 'ferry'. Defaults to NULL.
geometries: The route geometry format. If output = 'sf', you will get back an sf object and you should leave this blank. If output = 'full', the embedded route geometries will be one of 'geojson' (the default), 'polyline' with five decimal place precision, or 'polyline6'.
overview: If left blank, defaults to 'simplified' for simplified geometry; the other option is 'full' which provides the most detailed geometry available.
radiuses: A character string with semicolon-separated radii that specify the distance (in meters) to snap each input coordinate to the road network. Defaults to NULL.
approaches: A character string with semicolon-separated specifications for how to approach waypoints. Options include unrestricted and curb. Defaults to NULL which uses unrestricted for all waypoints.
steps: If TRUE, returns the route object split up into route legs with step-by-step instructions included. If FALSE or NULL (the default), a single line geometry representing the full route will be returned.
banner_instructions: Whether or not to return banner objects; only available whenoutput = 'full' and steps = TRUE.
language: The language of the returned instructions (defaults to English). Available language codes are found at https://docs.mapbox.com/api/navigation/#instructions-languages. Only available when steps = TRUE.
roundabout_exits: If TRUE, adds instructions for roundabout entrance and exit. Only available when steps = TRUE.
voice_instructions, voice_units: Only available when steps = TRUE and output = 'full'.
waypoint_names, waypoint_targets, waypoints: Only available when steps = TRUE and output = 'full'.
walking_speed: The walking speed in meters/second; available when profile = 'walking'.
walkway_bias: Can take values between -1 and 1, where negative numbers avoid walkways and positive numbers prefer walkways. Available when profile = 'walking'.
alley_bias: Can take values between -1 and 1, where negative numbers avoid alleys and positive numbers prefer alleys. Available when profile = 'walking'.
access_token: A Mapbox access token; which can be set with mb_access_token()

Value

An sf object (or list of sf objects), or full R list representing the API response.
