### Supported Markets

3rd parties and fleet operators in the European Economic Area can gain access to vehicle data.

### API Pricing

For example pricing, please visit our [pricing page](https://high-mobility.com/pricing). You are presented with the final pricing within the platform when creating a production app.

### Data Points

You can find a breakdown of all available data points in the following table: [Auto API availability for Volkswagen, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, Skoda, SEAT and CUPRA](https://airtable.com/appnqv8fdlWYRB0D4/shrGfnUdkGAc75aDp). Each request returns data points and corresponding timestamps; the timestamps indicate the moment the data was transferred from the vehicle.

### Data Packages update frequency

| PACKAGE          | UPDATE FREQUENCY    |
| ---------------- | ------------------- |
| Mileage          | Ignition Off        |
| Consumption      | Ignition Off        |
| Vehicle Location | Every 30 seconds \* |
| Vehicle Health   | Every 24 h          |

{% endhint %}

### Fleet Clearance

When performing an activation using the [Fleet Clearance API](broken://pages/ayVEW04npPdvZt6ZkHpf), we require the tag `vw-group-customer-name` to be passed in for Volkswagen Group brands. This tag should hold the fleet operator business name, which we associate with the specific VIN activation. In case you are a fleet operator or always activate VINs for a specific fleet operator, you can ask our support team to configure a specific business name, thus omitting the need to pass in `vw-group-customer-name` as a tag.

The following shows an example of how vehicle clearance objects are passed in with a tag set:

```json
curl -X POST https://api.high-mobility.com/v1/fleets/vehicles \
--data '
{
  "vehicles": [
    {
      "vin": "VIN012345678901234",
      "brand": "audi",
      "tags": {
        "vw-group-customer-name": "Car Operations Ltd."
      }
    }
  ]
}'
```

### Activation Limitations

#### Privacy settings during a clearance

If the privacy settings of a VW Group vehicle are enabled during the activation attempt, the vehicle will stay in the `pending` state while we keep retrying the activation. If the settings have not been disabled within 5 days, the activation attempt is rejected.

When privacy settings are blocking the activation, you can detect it in the `reason` field of the clearance object:

```json
{
  "vin": "VIN0TESTVIN000000",
   "status": "pending",
   "brand": "volkswagen",
   "changelog": [
     {
       "timestamp": "2025-01-22T10:42:14",
       "status": "pending",
       "reason": "privacy mode is enabled"
     }
    ]
}
```

#### EV vehicles with an active primary user

Currently, the VW API does not allow vehicles that are activated via their B2C app to be enrolled into a fleet. If this occurs, the vehicle will be rejected with the following reason:

```json
{
  "vin": "VIN0TESTVIN000000",
   "status": "rejected",
   "brand": "volkswagen",
   "changelog": [
     {
       "timestamp": "2025-01-22T10:42:14",
       "status": "rejected",
       "reason": "primary user enrolled"
     }
    ]
}
```

To resolve this issue, please perform the factory reset using the infotainment system: (Go to Home > Vehicle Settings/Setup > Reset to default settings.)

{% hint style="info" %}
This limitation is expected to be resolved in Q1 2026.
{% endhint %}

#### Vehicle with no data

If you attempt to activate a vehicle and the vehicle doesn't transmit data, the vehicle stays in `pending` state. In the API you see with this status

```json
{
  "vin": "VIN0TESTVIN000000",
   "status": "pending",
   "brand": "audi",
   "changelog": [
     {
       "timestamp": "2025-01-22T10:42:14",
       "status": "pending",
       "reason": "no data received"
     }
    ]
}
```

If after 10 days there is no data transmitted, the vehicle gets rejected:

```json
{
  "vin": "VIN0TESTVIN000000",
   "status": "pending",
   "brand": "audi",
   "changelog": [
    {
       "timestamp": "2025-01-22T10:42:14",
       "status": "pending",
       "reason": "no data received"
     },   
     {
       "timestamp": "2025-02-12T10:42:14",
       "status": "rejected",
       "reason": "activation timeout: no data"
     }
    ]
}
```
