Using our API is easy as 1,2,3 - Try it yourself!
FLEETIZE® is offering you a free and open API to integrate our features into your 3rd-Party-Application. Our API offers you a wide range and almost all functionality, which you can find within our dashboard. Have fun using our API! In cases you want to do more, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Note: this API-Documentation describes the API starting from FLEETIZE®-Dashboard-Release Version 2.8 of 28th June 2015 and all further versions.
This documentation helps software developers who want to integrate FLEETIZE® within 3rd-Party applications. Use this API to pump out vehicle-data from the FLEETIZE®-Platform for using these in your own application or projects. To start using our API, we recommend to cover the following knowledge:
For using the FLEETIZE®-API you need to register for a free user-account at http://track.fleetize.com and own at least one FLEETIZE®-Device. You can start with our Android-App to track your personal Smartphone as your first FLEETIZE®-Device.
To avoid misuse of the FLEETIZE®-API, every legitimated user needs to use his own personal API-Token. You can find your personal API-Token at the settings-menu within your FLEETIZE®-Account, or by requesting the API with the following REST-Call:
http://track.fleetize.com/api/login/{Base64-UserID}/{Base64-Password}
Replace {UserID} and {Password} with your Base64 encrypted, personal Login-Information. The API will respond with your personal API-Token. Deposite your Token at a secure place and use it only within compiled- or server-side-code. Should you ever lose your token, please destroy your old one by generating a new personal Token in your FLEETIZE®-Account.
Successfull requests will be responded with your personal API-Token:
40bd226c754d0b98081ef62cc4ae38bd
Our API can be accessed with simple HTTP-Request REST-Calls, according to the following URI-Structure (Uniform Resource Identifiers):
http://track.fleetize.com/api/{ActionCode}/{YourToken}/{Parameter1}/{Parameter2}/..
Every HTTP-Request has an Action-Code and a different amount of parameters. Some Action-Requests do not require your personal API-Token, such as the Login-Request. In all other cases please replace {YourToken} with your personal token and replace {Parameter} with the possible Action-Request-Options as described belowed. Please mind the API-Restrictions about how to use your personal API-Token correctly.
In all cases requesting the API you will get a JSON-File as a result, containing data of the requested Action-Code.
For requesting the API, each request needs to contain your personal API-Token (except Login-Request). Without this Token, or by providing a wrong API-Token, you will get the following warning while accessing the API:
ERROR #1000 - INVALID API TOKEN
Depending on your payed rate, you are allowed to request API every 5 seconds from the same IP-Address. This means 12 queries per minute. If you exceed this limit, you will get the following warning and the 5 second counter will restart:
ERROR #1001 - QUERY-THRESHOLD EXCEEDED
The API-Access will be temporary locked in case of continuous requests lower than 5 seconds and you will be punished to wait at least 24 hours before you can use the API again. In this case you will see this warning:
ERROR #1002 - QUERY-THRESHOLD EXCEEDED - API TOKEN BLOCKED
Each API-Request is paired with the calling IP-Address. Depending on your payed rate, you can access the API only with one IP-Address at the same time. Each request is logged and any abuse of the API may result in a temporary or permanent ban from the API.
Returning all legitimated devices for the given API-Token is possible with the following Action-Request:
http://track.fleetize.com/api/deviceshort/{YourToken}
Please replace {YourToken} with your personal token. The API will respond with all of your legitimated devices including the basic device-data:
[
{
"device_id":492,
"device_imei":359183064907632,
"device_type":"CAR",
"device_name":"My vehicle",
"device_description":"BMW E46 M3 Coupe",
"device_portrait":"http%3A%2F%2Ftrack.fleetize.com%2Fassets%2Fimg%2Fdevices%2F1471424858072.png",,
"device_mileage":277910,
"device_distance":0,
"online_timestamp":1426576180,
"heartbeat_timestamp":1426776180,
"error_code":0,
"error_text":null,
"status_absence":"Parking: 1d 10h",
"status_description":"parked since Di, 17.03., 08:09",
"status_text":"offline",
"location":"48.87778,9.34889",
},
{
"device_id":493,
"device_imei":349133054916622,
"device_type":"CAR",
...
}
]
You can get all device-data and route-information by sending the following Action-Request:
http://track.fleetize.com/api/device/{YourToken}/{VehicleApiID}/{OptionalTimestamp}
Please replace {YourToken} with your personal token, replace "VehicleApiID" with the API-ID of the intended vehicle and replace "OptionalTimestamp" with an optional UNIX-Timestamp of the targeted day. You can find the Vehicle-API-ID within the list of your devices or within the respective vehicle-configuration in your FLEETIZE®-Account.
Giving a Timestamp is optionally. If you don't add a Timestamp, the API will export the latest data for the requested vehicle. For Example: for exporting data of the 21st November 2014, please add the Timestamp "1416528000". You also can give the timestamp for 21st November 2014, 11 AM. The API would convert the Timestamp 1416567600 to 1416528000 so it always returns the vehicle-data of the whole 24 hours of the day.
In all cases requesting the API you will get a JSON-File as a result, containing all relevant data of the last 24 hours for the given vehicle-id:
{
"device":
{
"device_id":492,
"device_name":"My vehicle",
"device_description":"BMW E46 M3 Coupe",
"device_mileage":277910,
"status_text":"offline",
"location":"48.87778,9.34889",
},
"routes":[
{
"origin_timestamp":"1428498484",
"origin_mileage":277843,
"origin_location":"48.87917,9.19194",
"destination_timestamp":"1428503164",
"destination_mileage":277870,

"route_points":"48.82556,9.33111,0;48.82556,9.33111,0;...",
}
]
}

Every route-information such as starting and ending time, as well as routepoints are found within this node. The contained Tags are:
Within the Node "routes" you will find this node, containing all pause-activities. The contained Tags are:
