Endpoint: /way/{id}/full
Response format: application/xml
Auth: unknown
Method: GET
Last Status: 200
Latency: 192ms

Description

Retrieves a complete way with all of its node vertices fully expanded, including their latitude and longitude coordinates. This endpoint provides everything needed to draw the way on a map or analyze its geometry. Returns an OSM XML document containing both the way and all its referenced nodes.

From spec: Returns the way including all referenced nodes

Usage Tips

- Way ID must be a positive integer - Returns the way's tags, node references, and full node coordinates - Essential for rendering roads, paths, or area boundaries - Much more complete than the basic /way/{id} endpoint which only returns node references without coordinates

Parameters (1)

id (integer, path, required)

The way ID

Examples (1)
