For Agents
Programmatically retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds., retrieve a list of feeds.. Covers 4 operations.
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the TransitFeeds API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with TransitFeeds API API.
Retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds.
Manage maps geolocation data programmatically
Integrate TransitFeeds API into automated workflows
Query and filter TransitFeeds API records by parameters
GET STARTED
Use for: I need to a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds., I want to a list of feeds., Search for the download url for the latest version of a feed., Find all a list of locations.
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for maps and geolocation only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI document for TransitFeeds API, keeping it validated and agent-ready.
API to view feed information and download feeds from TransitFeeds.com. The API exposes 4 endpoints.
Monitor TransitFeeds API operational status and events
Patterns agents use TransitFeeds API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Maps and Geolocation Operations
Use the TransitFeeds API to perform maps geolocation operations programmatically. The API provides 4 endpoints covering core functionality including retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds., retrieve a list of feeds., retrieve the download url for the latest version of a feed..
Call GET /getFeedVersions to retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds.
Automated Getfeedversions Management
Automate getfeedversions operations by combining multiple TransitFeeds API endpoints. Agents can retrieve a list of feeds. and then retrieve the download url for the latest version of a feed. in a single workflow.
Call GET /getFeeds to retrieve a list of feeds., then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call TransitFeeds API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle none tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds.', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
TransitFeeds API none credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds.') and Jentic returns the matching TransitFeeds API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct TransitFeeds API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using TransitFeeds API API through Jentic.
What authentication does the TransitFeeds API use?
The TransitFeeds API uses no authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds. with the TransitFeeds API?
Yes. Use the GET /getFeedVersions endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the TransitFeeds API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds. through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'retrieve a list of versions of specified (or all) feeds.'. Jentic returns the matching TransitFeeds API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the TransitFeeds API have?
The TransitFeeds API exposes 4 endpoints covering getfeedversions, getfeeds, getlatestfeedversion operations.
