Posiway REST API Reference

Use this interactive reference to explore Posiway endpoints, authentication requirements, request parameters, examples, and response schemas for GPS tracking and IoT integrations. The API connects device, location, alarm, route, account, and operational data to customer-owned applications.

Plan an API integration

Start by confirming account scope and the minimum permissions your integration needs. Protect credentials outside client-side code, set explicit request timeouts, and design for pagination, rate limits, retries, and partial failures. Validate the documented request and response models before connecting a production workflow.

Use webhooks for event delivery

For alarm-driven workflows, use signed webhooks instead of repeatedly polling the API. Verify each signature against the raw request body, treat the event ID as an idempotency key, acknowledge accepted events promptly, and move long-running work to a queue.

What the reference provides

Endpoint pages show the HTTP method and path, available parameters, request bodies, response fields, and documented examples. Use the schemas as an integration contract, but still validate responses and handle unavailable or optional values. The machine-readable OpenAPI document can also support client generation, automated tests, and AI coding tools that understand the OpenAPI format.
