Depending on the types of data you are licensed to use with your PC*MILER Web Services|Spreadsheets API key, you can enter origins and destinations in the following ways.

City/State Pairs or ZIP/Postal Codes

Some examples:

U.S. 

Princeton, NJ or 08540

Canada

Toronto, ON or M4B 1B7

Mexico

Cancun, QR or 77500

Latitude/Longitude Points

Latitude/longitude points can be entered as stops on a route in degrees minutes seconds format or decimal degrees (e.g. 0401750N,0742131W or 40.297222N,74.358611W).

Here is an example of a lat/long near Kendall Park, NJ in both formats:

0402515N,0743340W    or    40.420833N,74.561111W

Latitude/Longitude Points with Street Addresses

This functionality will geocode the lat/long to the nearest point on the particular street in the address, rather than to the nearest street in the direction of travel, as would be the case for a lat/long by itself.

The lat/long is added before the address, followed by a semicolon.  An example is:

40.211670N,74.703480W;1200 Kuser Road 

Street Address with City/State

All street addresses MUST be separated from the preceding place name by a semicolon.

new york, ny;118 broadway

SPLC

A nine-digit Standard Point Location Code can be entered if you are licensed for that data.

191690000

Custom Places

Custom Places created in Content Tools can be entered as stops.
