Cruise control, Power Take Off Reporting and Regeration Status
We are interested in getting vehicle status information on cruise control e.g. when it is enabled vs. disabled as well as what mode it is in. We are also interested in getting information about when power take-off (PTO) is enabled e.g. is a particular idle using PTO. Last but not least is when regeneration is occurring. Are these pieces of information available via the API? I do see PTO in the beta driver efficiency endpoint but it is not clear where that information is coming from. Let us know. Thanks!
Delay between Driver App login and assignment to a Vehicle

Vehicle/Device and Driver info for mobile application
We are developing a mobile application that runs alongside the Samsara driver mobile application. Is there a mobile SDK or recommended way to obtain the vehicle/device that the mobile is currently "working with" and to get notification of the driver login and logout within the mobile software environment?
Developer Sandbox Instance of SamSara
Hello,
ETA Calculation
In [https://api.samsara.com/fleet/routes/{id}], how is the eta value being calculated? Is it coming straight from a Google Maps API? Using the vehicle's current speed along with posted speed limits? Any HOS considerations, truck routes, etc.?
Do the document type IDs need to be persisted when creating a document?
I'm creating a document using the "Create Document" endpoint "fleet/documents". The documentation states that a UUID is required for creating the document, but it's unclear as to whether or not that UUID should persist.
API Integration with ESRI GeoEvent
Has anyone used Samsara API on ESRI GeoEvent? I'm using ESRI GeoEvent to call Samsara API. The problem I have is that GeoEvent cannot make consecutive requests for multiple pages of data. It is required for all the results to be returned in one request. I’ve tried the recommendation on Samsara’s site(https://kb.samsara.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006667552-Integrating-with-ESRI-GIS) but had no luck. I got “POST not allowed on /v1/fleet/vehicles/locations (version 2021.06.09)” for the v1 version, and “invalid token” for the new version of the API.
Gateway Timeouts More Frequently
Lately our API calls have been receiving a lot more 504 Gateway Timeout errors, which according to https://developers.samsara.com/docs/response-codes means these errors are on Samsara's end, have you experiencing any issues with your servers recently?
