questions:
- Can I get travel times and distances between every origin and every destination in one request?
- Which pricing tier do I need for matrix routing in Azure Maps?
- Is it possible to compute a route matrix for trucks with a given vehicle weight?
instructions:
- text: Compute a route matrix in {format} from origins {origins} to destinations {destinations}.
slots:
format: path.format
origins: requestBody.origins
destinations: requestBody.destinations
- text: Build a {travelMode} travel-time matrix in {format} from {origins} to {destinations}, departing at {departAt}.

intent: Get driving directions between waypoints
effect: read
questions:
- How do I get turn-by-turn directions between two coordinates with Azure Maps?
- Can I request alternative routes and avoid toll roads in a simple directions call?
- What's the quickest way to get an ETA with live traffic for a route given as a coordinate string?
instructions:
- text: Get directions in {format} for the waypoints {query}.
slots:
format: path.format
query: query.query
- text: Route {query} by {travelMode} in {format}, avoiding {avoid}, with up to {maxAlternatives} alternatives.
slots:
query: query.query
travelMode: query.travelMode
format: path.format

intent: Get directions with supporting points or avoid areas
effect: read
questions:
- Can I reconstruct a route along a set of supporting points I already have?
- How can I route around specific polygon areas I want to avoid?
instructions:
- text: Get directions in {format} for {query} that avoid the areas {avoidAreas}.

update:
x-apievangelist-phrasing:
intent: Calculate a reachable range (isochrone)
effect: read
questions:
- What area can I reach from a point within 30 minutes of driving?
- Can I draw an isochrone based on a remaining EV battery budget in kWh?
- Is there a way to see how far a vehicle can go on a given distance budget?
instructions:
- text: Calculate the area reachable from {query} within {timeBudgetInSec} seconds, returned as {format}.
slots:
query: query.query
timeBudgetInSec: query.timeBudgetInSec
format: path.format
- text: Draw the reachable range in {format} from {query} with an energy budget of {energyBudgetInkWh} kWh.

intent: Submit a batch of route directions queries
effect: read
questions:
- Can I send many route directions queries in a single batch request?
- How do I run hundreds of directions lookups at once instead of one by one?
instructions:
