This endpoint retrieves a single trailer by its id. The version parameter in the URL path specifies which version of the API you are using. Including the version number ensures that your application interacts with the correct version of the API, providing stability and compatibility as the API evolves. For more information on how versioning works and how to include it in your requests, please refer to the Versioning page.

Request Parameters

The following parameters are required in the URL path:

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
version	String	Yes	The API version to use.
id	String	Yes	The unique identifier of the trailer.

This endpoint returns external trailers as well as company-owned ones. A trip or load response can hand back the id of an external trailer, and this is how you resolve it. Check CompanyOwnedAsset on the response to tell the two apart — see Trailer ownership.

Example CURL request

curl --location 'https://integrations.alvys.com/api/p/v{version}/trailers/{trailerId}' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'

Replace {version} with the API version number, {trailerId} with the actual trailer ID, and YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with your actual Bearer token.

curl --location 'https://integrations.alvys.com/api/p/v1/trailers/TL2512345678951234569' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ....'

Example Response

Rate Limits

All endpoints are subject to rate limits to protect the API from traffic spikes. For detailed information on rate limits, please refer to the Rate Limits section. This page is interactive, allowing you to try a request by providing the trailer ID in the URL path. As you fill out the parameters, the Curl command on the right side of the page will be automatically updated. Alternatively, you can directly edit the Curl command. Make sure to authorize yourself before trying a request.

Trailer ownership

Alvys records two kinds of trailer:

	`CompanyOwnedAsset`	What it is
Company-owned	`true`	A trailer in your own fleet, managed as an asset in Alvys.
External	`false`, `null`, or absent	A carrier’s trailer, recorded against a trip so the equipment on the load is known. It is not an asset you manage and has no fleet, VIN, or equipment detail.

Which trailers each endpoint returns differs by design:

Endpoint	External trailers
List trailers	Excluded
Get trailer	Included
Search trailers	Included, unless you filter on `CompanyOwnedAsset`

Test for CompanyOwnedAsset !== true, not === false. A small number of older external records were written before the field existed and carry no value at all, so they come back with CompanyOwnedAsset absent or null. They are external trailers. For the same reason, searching with CompanyOwnedAsset: false does not return them — omit the filter and test the response field if you need every external trailer.

CompanyOwnedAsset

boolean | null

Whether this trailer is part of the company's own fleet. true is a company-owned trailer. false is an external trailer — a carrier's equipment recorded against a trip rather than an asset this tenant manages. The field is also absent or null on a small number of older external records, so treat anything other than true as external.
