Provisional endpoint
This endpoint is available for early access. The core schema is stable, but minor details — such as field names or added fields — may change before it becomes generally available. Backward compatibility is not guaranteed.

See API Stability & Versioning for details on provisional endpoints.

Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

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

Path Parameters

string<uuid>

required

The unique identifier of the trailer

Query Parameters

is_sync

boolean

default:false

Whether to process the request synchronously. If true, Catena will attempt to create or update the resource immediately with the TSP and return the result in the response. When performing synchronous operations, you are responsible for handling any necessary retries in case of transient failures.If false (default), Catena will create an asynchronous operation, and you can check the status of the operation using the returned operation ID.

Body

application/json

Trailer model for updating existing records

connection_id

string<uuid>

required

Unique identifier of the connection at Catena Telematics which will be used to create this resource. A connection represents a Fleet/TSP pairing.

partner_ref

string | null

Your own reference for this record. Optional, up to 255 characters, opaque to Catena: it is stored and returned unchanged on the resource operation, its GET endpoints and the resource_operation.* webhooks, so you can match the outcome of a write to the record in your system without keeping the operation ID.

Maximum string length: 255

oem

string | null

Manufacturer (OEM) of the trailer.

model_type

string | null

Plate country code (ISO-3166-1 alpha-2, e.g., 'US', 'CA').

license_plate_number

string | null

License plate number (e.g., 'HMT-3570').

is_active

external_id

string | null

External trailer identifier as known in the TSP or customer's system.

trailer_length

number | null

Length of the trailer (numeric; unit per source, e.g., feet or meters).
