[Solved] API returns wrong results

Example:

Re: [Solved] API returns wrong results

No idea - you'll have to ask somewhere that people involved in development are likely to read.

There is API development going on at the moment - see https://github.com/openstreetmap/operat … -495910497 etc.

FWIW I've seen the same effect before - see https://master.apis.dev.openstreetmap.o … 84/history .

Re: [Solved] API returns wrong results

Seems the API problem was solved for now by switching back from "write backend" to "readonly backend"

fyi: Fix for the write backend is underway in https://github.com/zerebubuth/openstree … p/pull/183
