Update Health Trip

PUThttps://api.uber.com/v1/health/trips/{trip_id}

Privileged and Confidential This endpoint design has been confidentially shared with you. It is still under development and is subject to change without notice. Please do not share this document or API endpoint details with anyone who is not authorized to have access. For more information read about scopes.

¶ Use Case

Makes changes to a trip, which will be updated to whatever values are set for each field in the request. This means that not setting certain fields will delete any existing values for those fields.

NOTE: Update trip feature is only available for On-demand trips at the moment. Update is not supported yet for Scheduled/Flex/Reserve trip types.

¶ To update an active ride (a trip dispatched to a driver)

Only the destination and intermediate stops can be updated for active rides. You will need to ensure any fields other than the destination and the requested stops are the same as what they were set to when the trip was created. You can call GET /v1/health/trips/{trip_id} to retrieve those fields.

After updating them, subsequent calls to GET /v1/health/trips/{trip_id} will show the latest destination and requested stops updated in the destination and stop fields of the response.

¶ Authorization

OAuth 2.0 Bearer token with the health scope.
