Step 3: Add the Plate to the List

At this step, a vehicle entry is created in the list created before. The entry holds the properties of the vehicle to track in every available detail, license plate included. To do so, run the request ...

	POST Request Sample
/api/v1/plates

... with the body holding a Plates JSON file, in which the properties of the new entry are defined. Assuming only the license plate, owner's first and second names are known, only these values need to be assigned to the fields:

number

Required

string

maxLength: 12
minLength: 1

License plate number to track
Set "number": 5PPP064 in our example.

list

Required

integer($int32)

Identifier of the plate list which the new entry belongs to.

Set it equal to the id of the list created at the previous step.

owner_first_name

Required

string

maxLength: 64
minLength: 1

Vehicle owner's first name, "John" in our example.

owner_last_name

Required

string

maxLength: 64
minLength: 1

Vehicle owner's last name, "Dow" in our example.

The request returns the same Plate object to confirm the creation of the new entry, in which the id is the new entry's identifier assigned automatically, needed at step 4.
