Bing Maps MIO api: "BeginLocation and EndLocation with address"

Question

Hi,

I'm playing around with the MIO API and I've almost got it working completely.

One problem I can't get around is that I'm trying to use address for my start- and endlocation, but it won't recognize them. It only works if I specify the long/lat but I don't want to geocode them first.

This is what I'm trying (https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/V1/Routes/OptimizeItinerary?key=...):

{
"agents": [
{
"name": "agentName",
"shifts": [
{
"startTime": "2020-11-25T08:00:00",
"startLocation": {
"address": "Bijster 43, Breda"
},
"endTime": "2020-11-25T18:00:00",
"endLocation": {
"address": "Bijster 43, Breda"
}
}
],
"capacity": [
16
]
}
],
"itineraryItems": [ …..

Hi @Davy de Kerf we noticed that the documentation is lacking in this matter and we will update it soon, thanks for point this out.
Until then, I hope the example bellow that showcases the address/location functionality for both shifts and items will help you:

{  
    "agents": [  
        {  
            "name": "Agent location",  
            "shifts": [  
                {  
                    "StartTime": "2019-11-09T08:00:00",  
                    "StartLocation": {  
                        "Latitude": 47.694117204371,  
                        "Longitude": -122.378188970181  
                    },  
                    "EndTime": "2019-11-09T20:00:00",  
                    "EndLocation": {  
                        "Latitude": 47.7070790545669,
