GTFS Studio real-time extract availability

I’m writing to inquire about the status of the real-time extract functionality in GTFS Studio.

Could you please advise when the real-time extract feature will be available?

I would also like to confirm if the Public Transport – Realtime Vehicle Positions feed is still usable at the moment, or if there are any current limitations due to the real-time extract being down?

Hi @n92superfan99, a patch will be available soon, however we will need to wait to the new year to deploy.

Yes, the Public Transport - Realtime Vehicle Position feeds are still available and functioning!

Cheers,
Marcela

Hey, @Marcie thanks for the response. Apologise if I misunderstood you, but when visiting the Public Transport – Realtime Vehicle Positions page, a banner is placed across the top of the page stating: “Real-time extract functionality in GTFS Studio is unavailable due to technical difficulties. We are working to resolve as soon as possible.“ The dataset is also tagged with “GTFS Realtime“.

I have spent a little bit of time trying to implement it into my project, but I continue to get an error when running a curl command on my server. I’m not sure if this is an error on my end or TfNSW.

Hi! Sorry for the confusion! We’ve added the banner to all our pages :blush:

With the curl command, have you tried adding the word apikey with a space before the token?

@n92superfan99 hi - in terms of using curl with the API your command should look something like this: curl -H 'Authorization: apikey eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.[…]' [url]. The square brackets aren’t actually supposed to be there, but if you supply the API key like that you should get a working response. Hope this helps!

(and no, the part of the key shown in the example above doesn’t contain anything sensitive :wink: )
