City names and postcodes instead of points for calculation

Directions API
1

Hello all,
unfortunately I did not find what I was looking for in the documentation. Can I also use city names and postcodes to measure distance? I have only found points so far.

For example:
https://graphhopper.com/api/1/route?point=Berlin&point=Hamburg&profile=truck&locale=de&calc_points=false&key=xxx

Thank you very much :slight_smile:

The Routing API (and all others) only accept geo-coordinates as input. But using the Geocoding API you can convert addresses into geo-coordinates.
