How do I get the kilometres traveled by a vehicle since a specific date and time using the API?
Specifically when odometer information isn't provided by the vehicle.

To do this, we can grab all the Trips recorded for the device in question.
We use the fromDate to give us a starting point, and the deviceSearch to get the vehicle we want. You could also use the toDate parameter in the Search if you didn't want all records up to the current time.
For this example, we will use June 1st, 2020 as our date, and I filled in a vehicle ID that I used in testing, please remember to change to your vehicle ID.
var wDate = "2020-06-01T00:00:00.000Z";
var wDevice = "bCF"
api.call("Get", {
"typeName": "Trip",
"search" : {
"fromDate" : wDate,
"deviceSearch" : { "id" : wDevice }
},
}, function(results) {
var totalDistance = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < results.length; i++){
totalDistance = totalDistance + results[i].distance;
}
console.log("Total Distance: ", totalDistance);
}, function(e) {
console.error("Failed:", e);
});
