optimoroute

optimoroute_create_or_update_orders

Create, update or replace up to 500 orders in one call. No geocoding here: each location must be an existing locationNo or carry latitude+longitude (+ locationNo, address or locationName). Per order, operation MERGE/SYNC/CREATE/UPDATE works as in optimoroute_create_order; by default an order matched by id or orderNo is updated with only the fields sent, otherwise created. Returns a per-order success list. OptimoRoute: POST /create_or_update_orders.

optimoroute_create_order

Create one order, or update an existing one, with address geocoding. operation: CREATE (new; errors if orderNo exists), UPDATE (existing only), MERGE (create or update only the fields you send — safest for edits), SYNC (create or REPLACE all fields with what you send). CREATE/SYNC/MERGE of a new order need date, type, location and orderNo or id. A location is either an existing locationNo alone, an address to geocode, or latitude+longitude+locationName. OptimoRoute: POST /create_order.

optimoroute_get_completion_details

Get the completion status of up to 500 orders (unscheduled, scheduled, on_route, servicing, success, failed, rejected, cancelled) with service start/end times and positions, proof-of-delivery form data (notes, signature and photo URLs, barcodes), the tracking URL and optionally customer feedback. Read-only despite using POST. OptimoRoute: POST /get_completion_details.

optimoroute_get_dispatch_status

Have the routes (and customer notifications) for a date been sent to drivers, when, and are they the live routes? Optionally counts routes added, modified or removed since sending. Omit date for the currently live date. OptimoRoute: GET /get_dispatch_status.

optimoroute_get_events

Read driver-app events for the live routes — on_duty, off_duty, start_route, end_route, start_service, success, failed, rejected, start_time_changed — up to 500 per call. Pass the returned tag as after_tag next time to get only newer events; remainingEvents says whether more are waiting. Events can arrive out of order when devices were offline. OptimoRoute: GET /get_events.

optimoroute_get_orders

Fetch full order data (location, time windows, assignment, loads, skills, contact) for up to 500 orders by orderNo or id. Each result has its own success flag; missing orders come back with ERR_ORD_NOT_FOUND rather than failing the call. Read-only despite using POST. OptimoRoute: POST /get_orders.

optimoroute_get_planning_status

Check a planning (route optimization) run started with optimoroute_start_planning: status N new, R running, C cancelled, F finished, E error, plus percentageComplete. OptimoRoute: GET /get_planning_status.

optimoroute_get_routes

Get the planned routes for one date: per driver/vehicle the duration, distance, loads and the ordered list of stops with scheduled times. Optionally filter to one driver or vehicle and include the encoded polyline, start/end locations and dispatch status. OptimoRoute: GET /get_routes.

optimoroute_get_scheduling_info

Is this order scheduled, and if so on which driver/vehicle, at which stop number and time, plus the live ETA from the routes sent to drivers. Give orderNo or id. OptimoRoute: GET /get_scheduling_info.

optimoroute_search_orders

Find orders in a date range (at most 35 days) or by a list of orderNo/id, optionally filtered by status (e.g. failed, rejected, unscheduled), with order data and/or scheduling info. Up to 500 per page; pass the returned after_tag with the SAME other parameters to get the next page. Read-only despite using POST. OptimoRoute: POST /search_orders.

optimoroute_send_routes

Dispatch the routes for a date to the drivers' mobile app (the web app's Send Routes). This makes that date the live routes and CANNOT be unsent. sendNotifications defaults to FALSE here (OptimoRoute's own default is true); set it true only when you mean to email/SMS customers per the account's Order Tracking settings. Returns ERR_NOTHING_TO_SEND if nothing changed since the last send. Confirm with optimoroute_get_dispatch_status. OptimoRoute: POST /send_routes.

optimoroute_start_planning

Start OptimoRoute's route optimization for a date (or a dateRange for weekly planning, if the plan allows). With the default startWith EMPTY, existing routes for that date are REPLACED; use startWith CURRENT (+ lockType) to keep them. Returns a planningId — poll it with optimoroute_get_planning_status, then read the result with optimoroute_get_routes. Can be cancelled with optimoroute_stop_planning. OptimoRoute: POST /start_planning.

optimoroute_stop_planning

Stop a running planning (optimization) process by its planningId. OptimoRoute: POST /stop_planning.

optimoroute_update_completion_details

Set the completion status of up to 500 orders (e.g. mark success, failed or cancelled from an external system), optionally with service start/end times. Each time takes unixTimestamp, utcTime or localTime. Reversible by setting the status again. Returns a per-order success list. OptimoRoute: POST /update_completion_details.

optimoroute_update_driver_parameters

Change one driver's setup for one date: enable/disable, work hours, assigned vehicle, vehicle capacities, start/end location. WARNING: any existing route for that driver on that date is UNSCHEDULED; re-run planning afterwards. Start/end locations also apply to future optimizations. OptimoRoute: POST /update_driver_parameters.
