A trip import pushes stop sequences, resource assignments, and timing information into Qargo so that the planning board reflects the externally computed plan.
The trip_identifier is used to determine whether an incoming trip is new or an update to an existing one:
- Create — a new trip is created when a payload arrives with a
trip_identifierthat has not been seen before. - Update — if a payload arrives with a
trip_identifierthat already exists, Qargo updates the original trip rather than creating a new one. - Cancel — setting
status = 'CANCELLED'will remove the trip. A trip must have been created before it can be cancelled.
