Hello,
I noticed that for several weeks already the price data for Sunday and Monday are not updated in time, but are delayed until Monday noon / afternoon.
Right now this can be observed by querying https://www.smard.de/app/chart_data/4169/DE/index_hour.json: The timestamps correspond to the beginnings of the new weeks in the local timezone, so right now the most recent timestamp should be 1733094000000 which corresponds to Mon Dec 02 2024 00:00:00 GMT+0100 but actually the newest timestamp is 1732489200000 which corresponds to Mon Nov 25 2024 00:00:00 GMT+0100 so one week ago.
Also the data for the last week are not complete which can be observed by querying https://www.smard.de/app/chart_data/4169/DE/4169_DE_hour_1732489200000.json: From timestamp 1732921200000 corresponding to Sat Nov 30 2024 00:00:00 GMT+0100 all price data are null, so the entire data for Saturday and Sunday are missing.
It would be great if you could investigate why the data are delayed and fix the API to always provide the most recent data.
Best regards.

Hi, I also observed delays in the data; however, there seems to be a simple misunderstanding regardung this issue:

This smard-api is just documenting how the api of the Bundesnetzagentur (smard.de) is working since they do not offer an api documentation for it. The responsibility for the data availability is at the Bundesnetzgentur.

They should be apporached to resolve these delays, not the voluntary workers here who thankfully reverse engineered the api. When approaching the Bundesnetzagentur I´d recommend not to mention this github-API-documentation because it's not their documentation and ther will likely use it as an excuse not to resolve their delays. Instead you may point to their own website where the same delays are visible.

e.g. smard.de

The data provider Bundesnetzagentur is currently asking for feedback.
I gave the feedback that I´d like to get data without delay and a documented API from the Bundesnetzagentur itself.
I would encourage you to do so as well:
