Directions - "totalLength" units of measure?

[Sa_EdA_Rafat]

Hi all,

Does anyone know where the units-of-measure of the "totalLength" is specified?
This seems to be in meters even though my layer says it in Miles ("directionsLengthUnits": "esriNAUMiles").

json["directions"];

Are you sure that NA does the conversion for you?  I think the units are in the units of the coordinate system, ergo, if the projection has metric units, then it should be in meters

I measured the distance - the value is in meters.
My data is in WGS84, is meters the default unit of measure (not decimal degrees)?

Firstly, if you are using the Network Analyst, you should be using projected data and not relying on projections-on-the-fly

Sorry, I don't understand your response!
I think I'm in the wrong forum... I'll repost this for Server.
