How to Get a Trip ID

Learn how to obtain a Trip ID to manage trips.

Requirements

• You need to have a valid Trip resource.

The tripId can be retrieved from the Trip resource name key. This resource is returned by the StartTrip API which has been previously called for starting a Dott vehicle:

{
  "endDetails": {
    "acceptedRelocationFee": true,
    "duration": 0,
    "endTimestamp": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
    "tripEndReason": "TRIP_END_REASON_UNSPECIFIED"
  },
  "name": "trips/{tripId}",
  "startTimestamp": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
  "state": "TRIP_STATE_ACTIVE",
  "userId": "string",
  "vehicleType": "VEHICLE_TYPE_BICYCLE"
}

note

You can rely on the tripId to always be the last segment of the name property.
