Field level Description

FieldTypeOptional/RequiredDescription
eventSubscriptionIdString (UUID)RequiredA unique identifier representing the subscription through which this event was delivered. It ensures traceability between the event and the organization's registered RMS subscription.
eventTypeStringRequiredIndicates the event category. event.harshbrake identifies the payload as containing data recorded when a harsh braking incident occurred.
eventVersionNumberRequiredeventVersion indicates the schema version of the event, allowing producers and consumers to interpret the event consistently as the schema evolves.
eventIdString (UUID)RequiredA globally unique identifier assigned to this specific event instance. Useful for event deduplication, tracking, and audit logging.
assetIdString (UUID)RequiredIdentifies the physical asset (e.g., vehicle, trailer, equipment) associated with this event. Used to correlate telemetry with a specific asset in fleet management systems.
unitIdStringRequiredA unique identifier of the telematics device generating the event. It often includes a namespace (e.g., traxee:) followed by the device's serial or IMEI-like identifier.
registeredOnDateTime (ISO 8601 timestamp, UTC)RequiredThe timestamp representing when the event was detected and recorded by the device.
eventDataObjectRequiredThe eventData section contains detailed telemetry captured at the moment the harsh braking was detected.
refObjectOptional
ref.axleLoadNumber (kilograms)OptionalIndicates the measured load on the vehicle's axle(s) at the time of the harsh braking. Supports investigation into braking performance under varying load conditions.
ref.headingInteger (degrees 0–359)OptionalDirection of travel when the harsh braking was detected. A value of 169° indicates a southeast‑oriented trajectory.
ref.mileageNumber (kilometers)OptionalTotal accumulated distance traveled by the asset at the time of the event. Used for operational reporting and maintenance scheduling.
ref.latitudeNumber (decimal degrees)OptionalGeographic latitude where the harsh braking occurred, recorded using the WGS‑84 coordinate system.
ref.longitudeNumber (decimal degrees)OptionalGeographic longitude corresponding to the harsh‑brake event location, also using the WGS‑84 format.
ref.speedNumber (km/h)OptionalThe asset's speed immediately prior to or during the harsh braking event. Provides insight into the severity and context of the braking action.
