Expanded API capabilities enhance device monitoring
We’ve enhanced our current API to offer greater flexibility when building your own applications. This update introduces new device parameters, giving you more control and insights for effectively monitoring your GPS trackers:
New device object parameters:
externalId
- A unique identifier for the tracking device, which can be an IMEI, transponder ID, or app ID, depending on the device type.battery
- Indicates the charge level of the device as a percentage, allowing you to monitor the autonomy of your devices.online
- Displays the connection status with the RACEMAP server by checking if there's an active socket connection and evaluating the time since the last message was received.lastLocationGpsFix
- Shows whether the device had a GPS fix when recording the latest coordinate, providing insight into the accuracy of the tracking data.lastLocationAt
- The timestamp in UTC when the latest coordinate was recorded.
These enhancements empower you to create more robust and responsive applications with direct access to critical device information. Learn more about the current API in our documentation https://docs.racemap.com/data-api/current#device-object
