The Create Route Layers task creates route layer items on the portal from the input route data.
A route layer includes all the information for a particular route such as the stops assigned to the route as well as the travel directions. Creating route layers is useful if you want to share individual routes with other members in your organization.
Route data is a storage format used to describe the results of a network analysis and can be created in applications such as ArcGIS Pro.
Limits
The maximum number of route layers that can be created is 1,000. If the input route data contains more than 1,000 routes, the task will fail with an error message.
