Uses and Requirements

Each response includes a maximum of 1,000 devices.

Success Responses

Status 200

A success response includes information about the report itself (number of devices, etc.) and an array of JSON objects, each containing the position data or an error for a device in the request. The order of the devices in the response is the same as in the original request.

Property Name Data Type Description
startIndex string If hasMoreData is true, the value to use for startIndex in the next request to retrieve the next block of locations in the report.
txid string The transaction ID of the report.
totalCount integer The total number of devices in the request and in the report. Note that each response includes a maximum of 1,000 devices.
hasMoreData Boolean True if there are more device locations to retrieve.
devLocationList array of objects Device location information.
msid
string The MDN of the device.
pd
position data object Will be empty if position data is not available for the device.
x
string The X coordinate (latitude) of the device in decimal degree format.
y
string The Y coordinate (longitude) of the device in decimal degree format.
radius
string The radius of the location precision, in meters. A smaller radius indicates a more precise location.
qos
boolean (Future use) Indicates if QOS is met.
time
string The time that the location was reported. If the request was for “cached or current” information (cacheMode=2), the time value will tell you whether the location is cached or current data.
utcoffset
string The UTC offset of the time; omitted if the offset is 0.
error
position error object Will be empty if there was no error. If the location was not retrieved because it was offline, an error appears. However, ThingSpace will attempt to retrieve a location as soon as it is reachable.
type
string The error type.
info
string Additional error information.
time
string The time that the error was reported.
utcoffset
string The UTC offset of the time; omitted if the offset is 0.
