}Overview
Validates vehicle access and IMEI presence. If IMEI is missing, returns 200 OK with JSON{ "error": "Vehicle {id} imei not found" } instead of 4xx.
A V2 version of this endpoint is available: Refresh position. New integrations should prefer V2.
Endpoint
POST /api/UpdateLocation
Query parameters
integer
required
Legacy vehicle id.
Response
200 OK —null on success, or { "error": "..." } when IMEI missing.Authorizations
JWT Bearer token obtained from POST /api/authentication/token/user or POST /api/authentication/token/api-key.
Lifetime: ~24 hours (86,399 seconds). Cache the token and reuse it. Re-authenticate 5 minutes before expiry.
Scoping:
- User tokens are scoped to a single company.
- API key tokens may restrict access to a vehicle allowlist and/or action set (see token claims).
No refresh endpoint — re-authenticate with your credentials when the token expires.
Query Parameters
Vehicle ID
Response
Successful response
The response is of type object.
