uMap: programmatically updating layer content

Hi,

I've used http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/ service to create a map containing several layers.
Each layer has a name and specific graphic customization. The content of the layers has been created uploading GeoJSON files (using "Import data" feature).
This really fill my needs.

The GeoJSON files I used to create the map are programmatically generated every day. I can use uMap editing interface to update layer content ("Import data", "replace layer content") manually but I'm looking to automatize the process (e.g. using a script).

Is there an API I could use to update layer content programmatically?

Thanks in advance for your help

I think this is a built in feature of umap. Check this bit of documentation: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UMap/Guide#Use_external_data

Thanks Joost for your answer.

But, as I can read: - using external data, uMap refreshes URL content for each zoom or move action. As my GeoJSON files weight over 40Mb together, it will eat bandwidth and slow down map display - OverPass Turbo is designed to query OpenStreetMap, so not external GeoJSON files.

Any clue?
