Learn how to add the Directions component to a map.

Routing is finding the path from an origin to a destination in a street network. You can use the Directions component to find routes and directions between two or more locations. The component provides a user-friendly interface to find routes and directions. You can also use the route module to find routes and directions programmatically. See the Find a route and directions tutorial for more information on using the route service.

Note

To learn more about routing, visit Route and directions in the Mapping and location services guide.

Prerequisites ArcGIS Accounts:

You need an ArcGIS Location Platform or ArcGIS Online account.

Update the map

A streets basemap layer is typically used in routing applications. Update the basemap attribute to use the arcgis/navigation basemap layer and change the position of the map to center on Los Angeles.

  1. Update the basemap, center and zoom attributes.

          <arcgis-zoom position="top-left"></arcgis-zoom>
    
        </arcgis-map>
    
Add the Directions component
  1. Add the arcgis-directions component with its position set to be the top-right corner of the map. Adding the use-default-route-layer attribute will automatically create and associate a default RouteLayer with the map. Alternatively, you can manually set the layer property to an existing RouteLayer instance in the map.

Run the App

In CodePen, run your code to display the map.

You can add stops by searching for addresses or clicking a location on the map and set other options to find the appropriate route and directions between the stops.
