Esri Live Traffic Link

Hello, I have been tasked with adding a live traffic map layer to our esri map app.

Does anyone know:

If a live traffic link I can use exists?

How to get started with esri live traffic?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @AJThomas1212,

Please take a look at this item, World Traffic Service

Hope this helps,

Thanks, I saw that link. It doesn't seem to be working anymore.

AGOL idea: Update the World Traffic Service for the new map viewer

The link works for me as long as I click Open in Map Viewer Classic.

Hi @AJThomas1212 and @Bud,

The Live Traffic service is working for me in the New AGOL Map Viewer fine.

I'm unsure what issue(s) you're encountering.

Hope this helps,

@AJThomas1212You can use the traffic service in your app, it is a subscriber service, you are required to provide an authentication token when requesting the service. When you visit the item description page in Living Atlas as @DerekLaw pointed you to, there is a Subscriber tag on that item, it means you must be an authenticated user to access the service. To do this in your app you must supply your API key to the service. You can see an example of this in this Maps SDK for JavaScript example https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/sample-code/sandbox/?sample=time-layer
