As a SkyAlps manager I want the planned data of my flights of my new booking system integrated into the Open Data Hub, to give more visibility to my flights

[sseppi]

We got from HITIT (the new SkyAlps booking system provider) the data to access their system via API.
I put the access data into Passbolt and you find it a the following link:

https://passwords.testingmachine.eu/app/passwords/view/61a160bd-2116-4b43-afff-0e92f33d4c13

For redirecting to airline’s IBE the provider suggest to use the following format:

• OW Redirect url: https://swu-stage.crane.aero/ibe/availability?tripType=ONE_WAY&depPort=BZO&arrPort=CAG&departureDate=31.05.2025&adult=1&child=0&infant=0&lang=en
• RT Redirect url: https://swu-stage.crane.aero/ibe/availability?tripType=ROUND_TRIP&depPort=BZO&arrPort=CAG&departureDate=31.05.2025&returnDate=01.06.2025&adult=1&child=0&infant=0&lang=en

I attached to the issue also the documetation that the provider shared with us.

To avoid braking changes, if possible, we should try to map the information in the existing format put in the "metadata" JSON.

@mrabans feel free to add more details, if you need.

@Luscha @clezag can you please take a look into the data and let me know if we can map the data we get in the old structure and if we can ask the customer care to develop the new data collector.

[clezag]

These are the docs of the old endpoints (realtime is separate):
https://docs.aerocrs.com/reference/getfares
https://docs.aerocrs.com/reference/getschedule

The data collector has quite a bit of logic, but to me it looks close to a direct map of the API, this is an example of a flight in the Open Data Hub for reference:
https://mobility.api.opendatahub.com/v2/tree/Flight/*/latest?where=scode.eq.%22BQ1904_21AUG24%22

flight.json

Maybe I'm mistaken, but looking through the documentation, I cannot find calls to retrieve all possible flights, it looks more like an exact mirror of a frontend booking system (I guess because it is).

I've looked at the GetAirportMatrix service in the wsdl using SoapUI, but it looks like it just gets a list of airports (like when you select the airport in the dropdown menu, it doesn't list the flights themselves anywhere).

@clezag thank you for your deep dive into the API.

@mrabans shall we organize a short call with the Data Provider, to discuss with them our questions?

dedicated meeting needed to clarify

@mrabans how is the status here? Shall we try as NOI to take direct contact here?
