Log Recorded Location Field
What does the logRecordedLocation field represent in the HoursOfService pull?
Is that the location of the device the driver was using when the log changed or is that the location of the vehicle's gateway at the time of the log change?
Endpoint in question.

ELD generated vs driver app created HOS log events
My company has been having a problem with drivers putting themselves into Driving status while the vehicle is stopped. In the detailed Hours of Service report available through the web site, it's possible to see whether a log entry was created by the ELD (and thus cannot be edited). Is this data available in some way through the API? If not, could it be added? I'd like to be able to flag Driving status entries that were not created by the ELD.

Off-Duty Certification
Does Samsara require drivers to certify off-duty logs, or do the drivers have the ability to certify the logs?
Thank you

Duty Exemptions
Does your API support returning duty exemptions such as the 100/150 Air Mile, Adverse Conditions, or 16Hour/Big Day/Short Haul?
I've looked at the response documentation and didn't see anything in there. I do see that the driver object has eldExempt(true/false) and eldExemptReason(string).
Thanks!

Enumeration Lists
I'm looking for possible values for Ruleset and hosStatusType that may come through the API. Is there an endpoint that exposes them or something else I can reference?
Thanks!

Driver Duty Status / Engine Status
We are working on Driver Duty Status project in C. H. Robinson. We need to know the status of Driver / Engine on specific time. Let’s say, if I want to know the status of Driver at 9:25 AM on 17-Sept-2020 so I should get one of the statuses from "offDuty""sleeperBed""driving""onDuty""yardMove""personalConveyance" .
This can be solved by Get HOS logs API. Here we have few questions:
1. This API expects Driver ID to be passed as Input. We can fetch Driver ID from Retrieve a vehicle API. In response of Retrieve a vehicle API, we don’t get staticAssignedDriver attribute always and without that we can’t hit HOS log API. So which API can give us correct duty status on specific time?
2. If we make sure that staticAssignedDriver attribute come always in response of Vehicle API then we can use it. Also if we don’t pass Start Time and End Time as input, will HOS give current status?
Could you please help us to know the answers?
