Steps
Create a Motive developer profile and generate an API key, or configure OAuth for a multi-customer integration.
Call the vehicles and users endpoints to enumerate the fleet's assets and drivers.
Call the HOS logs endpoint to retrieve duty status changes, violations, and available drive time for a driver over a date range.
Call the fault codes/vehicle diagnostics endpoints to pull DTC and engine data reported by Motive's ELD hardware.
Register a webhook subscription for needed events, such as HOS log updates, instead of continuously polling.
Known gotchas
Motive's docs span both the original developer.gomotive.com portal and a newer Developer Hub — check both if a referenced endpoint seems missing from one.
HOS data is subject to FMCSA ELD mandate rules; treat retrieved logs as regulatory records rather than silently altering or re-deriving duty-status values downstream.
List endpoints enforce pagination and rate limits — a naive 'fetch all' loop that ignores pagination/backoff will error out on larger fleets.
