Authorizations

Authorization
string
header
required

The access token received from the authorization server in the OAuth 2.0 flow.

Path Parameters

vehicle_id
string<uuid>
required

The unique identifier of the vehicle.

Query Parameters

include_source_data
boolean
default:false

Include the raw data from the telematics provider. Useful for auditing or accessing fields not normalized by Catena

Response

Successful Response

Vehicle model for API responses

fleet_id
string<uuid> | null
required

Internal fleet identifier.

id
string<uuid>
required

Unique identifier of the record at Catena Telematics.

created_at
string<date-time>
required

Immutable: The datetime the record was ingested into Catena Telematics.

updated_at
string<date-time>
required

The dateime the record was last modified in Catena Telematics.

connection_id
string<uuid>
required

source_name
enum<string>
required

The underlying telematics platform that provided this data (e.g., samsara, motive, hos247). Note: Some platforms like hos247 offer white-labeling, so multiple TSPs may share the same source_name — use tsp_id or tsp_slug to identify the specific ELD provider.
