GBFS

This interface provides data of locations, items and their availability via timeframes in a standardized schema. Currently, version 3.1-RC3 of the General Bikeshare Feed Specification (GBFS) is supported with the following routes:

  • station_status.json
  • station_information.json
  • system_information.json
  • vehicle_status.json
  • vehicle_availability.json
  • vehicle_types.json
  • gbfs.json (Discovery)

Regarding vehicle_types.json

Since CommonsBooking is primarily used to rent out cargo bikes, the API returns cargo_bicycle as the default value for form_factor. As propulsion_type is a required field, the default value here is set to human. If this were not the case, much more additional information about the propulsion method would need to be provided.

Fixed Issue

Since June 2026 (version 2.11) the issue regarding a wrong display of availability is fixed.
