## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time routing data powered by Google Maps for any travel mode — driving, walking, cycling, or transit — between two specific locations. Prefer it over generic geocoding APIs when you need actual turn-by-turn directions or travel time estimates, not just coordinates.

## Known failure modes

- Unrecognized origin or destination address returns an error or empty result
- Invalid travel_mode value causes a bad request error
- Ambiguous place names (e.g. 'Springfield') may return incorrect routing
- No available transit or bicycle routes between locations may return no results
- Network or upstream Google Maps API outage causes request failure
