Does the Bing Maps API have any way to return sidewalk positional data? Looking for lat/lon line strings if possible.

    Bing Maps does not actually return positional data. That you would need to collect from the device (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/bingmaps/sdk-native/). What it will do is give routing directions that are on a sidewalk.

    Both travel Mode Transit & Walking (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/bingmaps/rest-services/routes/) will give a walking path that does offer a side walk.

    Do you have a scenario you can share?
