Title: API for travel times
Post by: jbnv on September 23, 2019, 11:29:45 AM
I'm writing a script to run when I leave the office. One feature of the script: Sending my wife a message that I'm heading home. I'd like the message to include an ETA of my travel time. Anyone know of a good API I can hit with my origin and destination and get back a travel time in minutes?

Call her and talk with her on your way home and she won't care how long it takes :D

Could the Google Maps API do it?  It should still be free for the low usage levels your personal script would have.
