Authorizations

​
Authorization
string
header
required

The Authorization header must be provided with a valid bearer token. Example: Authorization: Bearer {token}

Headers

​
sc-user-id
string
required

The identifier of the vehicle user on whose behalf the command is being executed. Vehicle commands require both the vehicleId (path) and sc-user-id (header) to identify the specific vehicle and the user who has granted permission to act on it. The bearer token is a machine-to-machine token and does not carry per-user context, so this header must be provided explicitly for every command request.

Path Parameters

​
vehicleId
string
required

The unique identifier for the vehicle.

Response

200 OK - Command executed synchronously and successfully
