Set intermediate waypoints

Intermediate waypoints are locations in between the origin and destination that you want the route to go through. An intermediate waypoint can be a stop or you can specify it as a location to pass through. For an example of a waypoint for a stop, see Set a stop along a route. For an example of a waypoint to pass-through, see Set a point for a route to pass through.

Use the intermediates property of the computeRoutes method to define up to a maximum of 25 intermediate waypoints.

For each intermediate waypoint in the request, a new leg is added to the route.

Example request

The following example shows how to set an intermediate waypoint. The example uses the intermediates property of the computeRoutes request to define an intermediate waypoint.

const routeRequestWithIntermediates = {
  origin: 'Mountain View, CA',
  destination: 'San Francisco, CA',
  travelMode: 'DRIVING',
  intermediates: [{location: 'San Mateo, CA'}, {location: 'Half Moon Bay, CA'}],
  fields: ['path', 'legs'],
};
