is it possible to track the gps tracker in cartodb in real time?
I saw that cartodb has table sync but this sync only every hour but i need something that can sync every 30 sec.

The call should look like:
curl -v -X "PUT" "https://{username}.carto.com/api/v1/synchronizations/<import_id>/sync_now?api_key={account API Key}" -H "Content-Length:0"
However you need to alter some value server side for a near-real-time experience because the limit is every 900s (15m).
