Hi @bhavinnet 

 

You are trying to access Transport for NSW time tables;

 

Do you register with them?

Do you register the application? This is like a token.

 

Please visit Open Data - Transport for NSW - Get Started follow the steps described in there, they are very comprehensive.

 

It is not as simple as asking us to create the API connection, because first, if we do and share, we will be sharing our own credentials and we do not know how this API will be consume and by whom, so visit the sites listed below; Transport for NSW provide plenty of information, and the registratio process is very simple.

 

You should also visit this TfNSW page Open Data Developers 

 

Once you complete your account creation and register your application, you may also need to visit Explore API that will allow to play with the API even before implementing them in Alteryx.
