Carrier-Proposed APIs
New carrier assignment API endpoints are now available that allow you to propose vehicle, trailer, and shipping doc assignments to drivers. Using this API, you can propose such an assignment to a driver and, the driver will see this proposed assignment in the Samsara Driver App. The endpoints also allow you to query the list of proposed assignments to see when a driver either rejected or accepted the proposed assignment.
Auxiliary inputs in Vehicle Stats API
The Vehicle Stats endpoints now allow you to query for auxiliary input data.
Created at timestamp for Contacts
Contact objects now include a timestamp of when a given contact was created.
Equipment APIs
New Equipment APIs are now available that provide insight into heavy equipment connected to the Samsara platform. These APIs provide data specifically about heavy equipment connected to AG24s through the newly released J1939 cables as well as the existing powered asset cable for the AG24 (APWR). The APIs currently allow you to:
Snapshot time in Vehicle Locations and Vehicle Stats APIs
The GET /fleet/vehicles/stats
and GET /fleet/vehicles/locations
endpoints now support a time
parameter, which will return the last known stats of all vehicles at the provided time.
Tag hierarchies on filters
All API endpoints now support a parentTagIds
query parameter. This parameter allows you to filter the data to a list of parent tag IDs and automatically includes the data in the descendants of those tags.
VIN as an external ID
The Vehicles APIs now automatically support VIN as an external ID using the pattern: samsara.vin:1HGBH41JXMN109186
. Read more about external IDs on developers.samsara.com.
Deactivate Drivers by API
The PATCH /fleet/drivers/{id}
endpoint now allows you to deactivate drivers by setting the driverActivationStatus
field to deactivated
. Additionally the Drivers API endpoints now support querying by this driverActivationStatus
field.
Created and updated timestamps on Drivers
The Drivers API now provides timestamps for when Drivers where created and updated, as well as filtering the list of drivers by those timestamps in the GET /fleet/drivers endpoint
.
Parent tag on all entities
All tag fields will now include the ID of the parent tag. This means that whenever an object is part of a given tag, it will include the parent tag ID as well.
