Overpass API import

[Martin_Borsje]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Build query. e.g user:"gerrit_dankelman"
2. Show small map tile with data of user in it

Generated code:

[timeout:25];
// gather results
(
  // query part for: “user:gerrit_dankelman”
  node(user:"gerrit_dankelman");
  way(user:"gerrit_dankelman");
  relation(user:"gerrit_dankelman");
);
// print results
out meta;
>;
out meta;

3. run 'download

What is the expected result?

user data within the bbox

What happens instead?

starts downloading worldwide data of user (I guess) and times out
Message: Failed to download data. Its format is either unsupported, ill-formed, and/or inconsistent. Details (untranslated): runtime error: Query timed out in "print" at line 12 after 34 seconds.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

This query also fails using Overpass Turbo (​http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/dxO). Seems to be an issue of the Overpass API – please report at ​https://github.com/drolbr/Overpass-API

In my case the query did not fail in Overpass turbo.

/*
This has been generated by the overpass-turbo wizard.
The original search was:
“user:"Martin Borsje"”
*/
[out:json][timeout:25];
// gather results
(
  // query part for: “user:"Martin Borsje"”
  node(user:"Martin Borsje")({{bbox}});
  way(user:"Martin Borsje")({{bbox}});
  relation(user:"Martin Borsje")({{bbox}});
);
// print results
out body;
>;
out skel qt;

The timeout is parsed since r9308 (you can download it from https://josm.openstreetmap.de/jenkins/job/JOSM/590/jdk=JDK7/ for testing).

The other thing is that Overpass does not return a <bounds> element, thus it looks like the whole planet is queries when it is not. I created an issue on GitHub: ​https://github.com/drolbr/Overpass-API/issues/251

[Martin_Borsje]

Simon: thanks, but it is still strange to me that when I use the Overpass Turbo site I can download data from me as user (of course in an area where I have been editing) and can export that to JOSM successfully, while not directly importing from JOSM through API.

I used combinations as user:"Martin Borsje", user="Martin Borsje", "user"=etc.

Maybe the user query is restricted to a login or openly available logs?

[simon04]

Sending ​http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/dxY to JOSM via remote control works for me (using ⩾r9308). One has to select an area in Overpass Turbo that will contain data.

Overpass API has no login, authentication mechanism

​https://github.com/drolbr/Overpass-API/issues/251 has been closed; we await a rework of the Overpass Turbo wizard which will include a global {{bbox}} statement, and thus, the Overpass API returns download bounds.
