my.calculateRoute
Call this API to calculate the route.
Notes:
- For mini programs released to Alipay CN, the map-related APIs are backed by Gaode Map.
- For mini programs released to other Alipay+ partner apps, the map-related APIs are backed by Google Maps. These API calls are charged so you need to provide your own gAPIKey instead of using the super app's API key. Contact our technical support for details.
- The IDE simulator cannot obtain the return values. Use the real development environment to obtain the return values.

API key
You can use your own API key when calling the map-related APIs backed by Google Maps. Follow the steps below for configuration:
- Get an API Key from Google: Follow Google's instructions to get an API key, which is required when using the Google Maps service.
- Encrypt your Google API key: To encrypt your Google API key, contact our technical support. Then replace
ENCRYPTED_CUSTOM_GOOGLE_API_KEY
with your encrypted Google API key:
this.mapCtx.showRoute({
data: "",
gAPIKey: "ENCRYPTED_CUSTOM_GOOGLE_API_KEY", // The API key must be encrypted
success: function (res) { },
fail: function (res) { }
});
Error codes
Google Maps
{
"success": false,
"errorCode": 1900,
"status": "INVALID_REQUEST",
"errorMessage": "Exactly two waypoints required in transit requests"
}
The default error code is 1900
(compatible with Gaode Map, which means the 1900
error code of Gaode Map is used to throw any error instance of Google Maps). For error details about Google Maps, see status and errorMessage. Note that status corresponds to DirectionStatus in Google Maps. To learn more, refer to Status of Directions Query on Google Maps Platform.
Gaode Map
{
"success": false,
"errorCode": 1900
}
The following provides the error codes and descriptions of Gaode Map in different mobile operating systems:
Success callback function
The incoming parameter is an object parameter with the following attributes:
Property | Type | Description |
success | Boolean | Specifies whether the API call is successful. When the value is |
distance | Number | Indicates the distance between the starting point and the endpoint. |
duration | Number | Indicates the length of time spent according to the planned route, in seconds. |
