Supported protocols per API

[Bernd Welter]

Partner asks:

Can we send request to Dev API as xml format?

Here's an overview of supported API protocols:

API	OpenAPI	JSON	SOAP / XML	Rest
PTV Developer	yes, v3	yes	no	yes
PTV xServer 2	yes, v2	yes	yes	partially (lower feature coverage)
PTV xServer 1	no	yes	yes	no

• partially : some methods of PTV xServer 2 are available through REST calls but these methods lack coverage of certain parameters, e.g.
  • com.ptvgroup.xserver.xroute.XRoute2.calculateRoute(REST) : does not support more than 2 waypoints or vehicle profile parameters
  • com.ptvgroup.xserver.xlocate.XLocate.searchLocations(REST) : does not support search options, does not support multifield search
