What HERE Public Transit API (your key) is for
HERE Public Transit API (your key) lets an AI assistant read your own HERE Transit data through the HERE Transit API with a key you supply (HERE API key). Read-only: 6 tools (plan_transit_route, list_next_departures_by_station, list_next_departures_nearby, search_transit_stations, list_stations_by_id, get_service_version). The BYOK key travels with each request, is used for that one call only and is never stored, logged or cached; it is only ever sent to transit.hereapi.com. Unofficial connector by Unify Dynamics LLC: not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by HERE Transit. HERE Transit and its logos are trademarks of their owners and are used only to say which service the connector works with.
Ask your assistant things like:
- "How do I get from Berlin Hauptbahnhof to Alexanderplatz by public transit tomorrow morning?"
- "What are the next departures from station 110543003?"
- "What public transit departs near latitude 52.5308, longitude 13.3847 in the next minutes?"
- "Find the station named Hauptbahnhof in Berlin"
- "Which lines serve station 110543003?"
- "Which version of the HERE Public Transit API is running?"
What it does
plan_transit_route: Plan public transit routes between two coordinates, by departure or arrival time, with sections (walk, transit lines, transfers), times and optional alternatives; returns the provider's JSON.list_next_departures_by_station: List the next departures of one or more stations by station id (from search_transit_stations): line, direction, mode and scheduled and real-time times; returns the provider's JSON.list_next_departures_nearby: List the next departures of the stations around a point, with line, direction, mode and times; returns the provider's JSON.search_transit_stations: Search public transit stations and stops by name, optionally near a point, or by coordinates only; returns id, name, type and position.list_stations_by_id: Get stations by id with their position and the transit lines (transports) that serve them.get_service_version: Show the Public Transit API version and service version, to confirm that the key can reach the service.
BYOK key
You bring your own HERE Transit HERE API key (https://platform.here.com/admin/apps). Your assistant sends it in the X-Upstream-Key header with each request. ConnectorBay uses it for that one call only: it is never stored, logged or cached, never shown in an answer, and it is only sent to transit.hereapi.com over https, with no redirects followed. Create a key with the fewest permissions the tools need (read-only if the provider offers it), and revoke it at the provider whenever you like.
Notices
HERE platform terms limit storing results outside the platform (30 days) and serving one request to many end users.
