Added version 6.0.1, the response includes an additional field status that contains the reason of the incompleted route. See the Api reference.

You can now request altitude information for the route. See Altitude information for more details.
Calculated routes will now include information about special points on the route (for example, start of a toll road).

You can now build pedestrian routes inside buildings that have floor plans. See the Routes inside buildings section for more info.

You can now build bicycle routes. When building a bicycle route, you can exclude new types of roads using the filters parameter: stairways, overpasses, underpasses, and car roads.

You can now set a list of areas to avoid when building a route. See the Excluding areas section for more info.
You can now specify the direction of movement for the start and end point of the route. See the azimuth parameter for more info.
Route points now have an optional distance_direction parameter. You can use it to set the distance from the starting point in meters maintaining the direction of movement. If distance_direction is set, the response will include an additional field reliability that indicates the accuracy of the calculated route.
You can now build taxi routes. They work exactly like regular car routes, except they additionally include public transport lanes.
