# 2026-09-21 — v1.4.0

> Context and impact for Cariqa Connect API v1.4.0.

## Overview

This release introduces a new API for retrieving the latest available stations data via bulk download links.

## Why this was delivered

Station data is provided as JSON files that can be consumed by integrations that need to retrieve it for various purposes (e.g. their own mapping)

The new API provides a stable entry point for retrieving the latest available station data.

The links are temporary and expire after a short period of time.

Check against the `last_updated` field to determine when the file was generated

<WARNING>
  The JSON files are gzip-compressed. You need to decompress them before processing.
</WARNING>

## Impact

This is a new API that can be used to extend your integration with station data.

* `GET /stations/data/`

<WARNING>
  The file generation time may vary. Take this into account in your implementation.
</WARNING>

## Required action

No additional action is required
