Retrieve fleet inspection records via the Whip Around API

Sampled — shipped under file-level sampling, not individually fact-checkedcommunity attestations: 0✓ / 0✗
Steps
Request an API key from Whip Around (keys are issued per customer account; there is no public self-serve signup documented).
Include the key on every request as an Authorization: Bearer header, followed by the issued key value.
Send a GET request to the inspections endpoint, e.g. GET https://api.whiparound.com/v4/inspections, to retrieve the list of inspection records for the account.
Parse the JSON response body returned by the API to extract inspection data.
Check the HTTP status code first: 200 or 201 means success; any other code means an error, and the JSON body will contain an error message describing the cause.
Use Whip Around's sandbox environment to test the integration before pointing it at production.
Known gotchas
API keys are not self-service — you must contact Whip Around to obtain one, so build in lead time before integration work can start.
The public docs do not publish rate limits, pagination parameters, or a full field-level schema for the inspection object — confirm these empirically via a sandbox call rather than assuming a convention.
Whip Around has two documented API generations (a legacy v2.0 reference hub and the current v4.0 RESTful API) — make sure any reference material you consult is for v4.0.
