## Query

The query API returns only the rows you ask for, as JSON, NDJSON or CSV, from the same typed rows as the files. It needs no key. Rows: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/rows. Counts and sums: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/aggregate.

- Rows: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/rows?limit=5
- Aggregate: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/aggregate?group=stop_type&metric=count

Each filter is `field=operator.value` in the query string, and every filter must match. A number or date field compares as a number or date, and a text field compares as text. Values are case-sensitive except with `ilike`. Prefix `not.` to negate a filter, as `not.eq.value`. Operators: `eq.value`, `neq.value`, `gt.value`, `gte.value`, `lt.value`, `lte.value`, `like.*text*`, `ilike.*text*`, `in.(a,b,c)`, `is.null`.

- `select`: Fields to return, comma-separated. Every field when absent.
- `order`: `field.asc` or `field.desc`, comma-separated. The publisher's row order when absent.
- `limit`: Rows per page, 1 to 10,000. 100 when absent.
- `offset`: Rows to skip. The `next` URL in each answer sets it for you.
- `group`: On `aggregate`, fields to group by, comma-separated.
- `metric`: On `aggregate`, `count`, `sum.field`, `avg.field`, `min.field` or `max.field`, comma-separated. `count` when absent.
- `format`: `json`, `ndjson` or `csv`. JSON carries the provenance header, and the others carry it in response headers.

Without a version the API answers from the newest loaded version, and that answer changes when the publisher releases again. Put `versions/<date>/` before `rows` or `aggregate` for an answer that never changes. `/api/v1/datasets/<slug>/versions` lists the loaded versions. The API allows 60 requests in 10 seconds from one address. Above that it answers 429 for 10 seconds with a `Retry-After` header, a `RateLimit-Policy` header and a JSON body that gives the limit. Every API answer carries the same `RateLimit-Policy`. A client should wait the `Retry-After` seconds, or read the files, which have no limit.

It redirects to the newest dated version, which is https://publicdata.au/d/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/v/2026-08-20/data.csv today. The same path serves Excel, JSON, GeoJSON, Parquet, SQLite, DuckDB, GeoPackage, GeoParquet, NDJSON, Arrow. A dated URL never changes, so use it when the file must stay the same.

### Can I open Translink origin-destination stops in Excel?

Yes. https://publicdata.au/d/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/v/2026-08-20/data.xlsx is a workbook with the 16,933 rows on a records sheet, the field list on a second sheet and the provenance on a third. The CSV also opens in Excel. https://publicdata.au/d/qld-translink-origin-destination-stops/v/2026-08-20/data.csv.gz is the CSV at about a tenth of the size.

### How often is Translink origin-destination stops updated?

### Is this the official source for Translink origin-destination stops?

No. The publisher is Department of Transport and Main Roads, and its page is https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/translink-origin-destination-trips-2022-onwards.

### What is a virtual stop?

The publisher lists about 3,600 stops of type Virtual beside bus, rail, busway, ferry and light rail stops. They are kept as published.

## What this site did to the data

Cells were typed, headers were renamed to snake_case and the encoding was made UTF-8. Rows were left alone. Nothing is derived. The publisher's file is beside every version as `source.csv`.
