Overview
Transport for Sweden (Trafiklab) is a developer platform providing access to public transport data across all of Sweden. It offers real-time departures, trip planning, and historical data from operators like SL (Stockholm) and Skanetrafiken. OAuth authentication is required, so you will need to register for a free developer account at trafiklab.se.
Beginner Tip
Register at trafiklab.se to get your API keys — most datasets offer a generous free tier for development. Start with the ResRobot API for nationwide trip planning as it covers all Swedish public transport.
Available Data

Calls a real endpoint of this API. Replace any placeholder credentials with your own key.
const url = "https://api.resrobot.se/v2.1/departureBoard?id=740000001&format=json&accessId=YOUR_API_KEY";
// Replace headers or query params with the values required by this API.
const response = await fetch(url, {
headers: {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
}
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data); What Can You Build?
