Disable location updates
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
When the driver finishes their shift, you can stop location updates and mark the
vehicle as offline by calling
DeliveryVehicleReporter.disableLocationTracking() or
RidesharingVehicleReporter.disableLocationTracking().
This call schedules one final immediate update to Fleet Engine to indicate that
the vehicle is offline. This update does not contain the driver's location.
Set the vehicle state to offline
To mark the vehicle as unavailable in vehicle searches, you can set the vehicle
state as OFFLINE or disable location updates. You can mark a vehicle as
OFFLINE when you have not yet enabled location updates or when you have
explicitly disabled updates. The Driver SDK communicates the vehicle as offline
to Fleet Engine immediately.
