Access token

As an alternative to email and password login, there is an option to use an account token for authorisation.

...

To create a token use the "token" query parameter in a session GET request:

https://traccariot.powunity.com/api/session?token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

...

In addition to the REST API, we provide access to a WebSocket endpoint for live location updates and events. The URL for the connection:

wss://traccariot.powunity.com/api/socket

Session cookie is the only authorization option for the WebSocket connection.

3. Select Account

4. Click on the Attributes button in the dialog that opened

5. Use the + button to add the following attributes to the table - NOTE: Attribute names are case sensitive!

   1. webhookUrl This is the URL that will be called on every new event via a HTTP POST request. We highly encourage to use a URL starting with https:// but http:// is also supported for testing purposes.

   2. webhookPsk Optional. If set, the HTTP(S) requests will contain a Authorization header with this attribute’s data as value. This should allow Basic and Bearer authorization methods to be implemented easily.

   3. webhookTypes Optional. If set, this should be a comma (,) separated list of event types which are to be forwarded by the webhook. If this attribute is not present then all events are sent. Some useful possible values are: deviceOnline,deviceOffline,deviceMoving,deviceStopped,alarm,geofenceEnter,geofenceExit,ignitionOn,ignitionOff

   4. Here is what the Attributes dialog could look like:

      

6. Once the attributes are set close the Attributes and Account dialogs. The webhooks are then activated immediately.
