We've released a new version of the API. This version updates the behavior of the Retrieve a unit of equipment API endpoint. Previously, this endpoint worked for any gateway within Samsara. This was not intended behavior. Now the endpoint only works for Equipment: assets connected to a Samsara Asset Gateway (AG) via APWR, CAT, or J1939 cables.

The new Get all driver HOS daily logs API endpoint allows you to get a daily summary of activity for each driver. Check out the Daily Duty Status Summaries API Guide for more details and sample code.

The Drivers APIs now support a deactivatedAtTime field that indicates when a driver was deactivated.

External IDs are now supported for both the top-level Route object as well as each route stop in the dispatch_jobs array. See the Routing Guide for some example code.

We've updated the API rate limit policy. We will now enforce rate limits on a per-endpoint basis, in addition to the existing global rate limits. For example, the global rate limit is 200 requests per second, but the /fleet/hos/logs endpoint is rate-limited at 30 requests per second. See the Rate Limits page for full details.

The Drivers APIs will now return a currentIdCardCode string field that contains the NFC ID card code for each driver. This card code also shows up in the Vehicles Stats APIs when you query for types= nfcCardScans.
