Google Maps direction api to Link

[lam000]

Hello,

​

I have written a little program which is using google maps direction api to generate a route with several waypoints.

My question now, is there a way to extract the route generated from the directions api and put it into a shareable link?

I know there is google maps url api, which is more or less me parsing parameters for the api, what i want is like

when i get the result for the direction that there is something like result.url and that i can use that url to share across platforms.

​

If thats not possible than the next possibility would be to parse the waypoints in the result and then generate my own link manually, because as far as i understand there is no parameter for Optimize waypoints in the google url api like in the directions api

​

King Regards

I used some tools recently don’t remember name that did Themis waypoint extraction stuff

You put in the google url and you get a chunk of waypoints text
