Purpose: Creates a new video recall request for a vehicle or asset for a specified time range. Video retrieval is processed asynchronously, and the request status and download URLs can be retrieved later using the video recall request details endpoint or a completion webhook.
NOTE
start_timeanddurationare required.- Provide exactly one of
vehicle_numberorasset_name, but not BOTH.start_timemust be a valid ISO 8601 timestamp and cannot refer to future footage.- The requested time range must have video available.
- Supported durations:
regular:1,2, or3minutestimelapse:5,10,15,30,45, or60minutes- Supported

- Smart dashcam recalls are limited to 1 minute.
- Duplicate requests may be rejected.
- Requests are subject to company rate limits and monthly quota limits.
Important info - Camera Positions
- If camera_positions are not mentioned, the endpoint pulls the footage from all the available cameras.
- If camera_positions specifies only Dashcam camera valiues, then the footage from Omnicam is ignored.
- If camera_positions specifies only Omnicam positions, then the footage of the Dashcam is ignored.
- If camera_positions contains a mix → both dashcam and OmniCam, then the endpoint filters the footage accordingly.
- Special case: if front_facing is specified without driver_facing, only road-facing video is retrieved from the dashcam (road_facing_only mode)
- Passing an empty array [] returns a 400 error
- Passing invalid position strings returns a 400 error
