Events/get_events

`get_events`token required

Returns vehicle events filtered by category, severity, license/vehicle/chassis and last_time.

POST/api— body field action.name = "get_events"

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`event_category_id`	string	optional	Comma-separated list of event category ids (each parsed as int).e.g. `1,2,3`
`severity_level`	number	optional	Numeric severity threshold.e.g. `2`
`license_number`	string	optional	License plate filter.e.g. `17108`
`vehicle_id`	number	optional	Internal vehicle id.e.g. `591723`
`chassis_number`	string	optional	VIN / chassis serial filter.e.g. `1HGCM82633A004352`
`last_time`	date	optional	Only return events after this timestamp.e.g. `2026-05-26T00:00:00Z`
`event_id`	number	optional	Return a single event by id. Bypasses the time window entirely.e.g. `2173309686`

Pagination

This action is paginated. The two parameters below are accepted on every call (both optional); omitting them yields page 1 with 100 rows. The response carries a pagination envelope alongside data; iterate while has_more === true.

page, page_size and has_more are present on every paginated response. total_count and total_pages are returned only by some actions — treat them as optional and drive iteration from has_more rather than from a page count worked out in advance.

Name	Type	Required	Description
`page_number`	number	optional	1-based page index. Defaults to 1 if omitted. Page 1 pins a snapshot for stateful actions (events, telemetry) — subsequent pages reuse that snapshot until the session expires (~30 minutes).e.g. `1`
`page_size`	number	optional	Rows per page. Defaults to 2000, which is also the maximum — larger values are silently capped to 2000, and a response of exactly 2000 rows usually means there are more pages. For stateful actions (events, telemetry) only the value sent with page 1 is honored, because later pages reuse the size pinned by the snapshot; stateless actions read it on every request.e.g. `2000`

Iterate every page

curl

# Iterate every page until pagination.has_more is false.
# page_size "100" is a deliberate small page so the loop is visible — the
# default is 2000, which is also the maximum. Raise it to fetch fewer,
# larger pages; you still stop on has_more either way.
# Requires: jq (https://stedolan.github.io/jq/).
page=1

done

Page 1 pins a snapshot for stateful actions (events, telemetry). If the session expires (~30 min) the API returns action_value="3" with description pagination_session_expired — restart from page_number=1.

Notes

Requires a valid session token. String fields are url-encoded for legacy compatibility.

Response

Successful responses always wrap the action's payload in response.properties. The action_value field reports the handler outcome: "0" for success, "1" for invalid params, "2" for not allowed, "3" for limit-exceeded /pagination-session-expired, "999" for general error.
