Manage AWS IoT FleetWise vehicle models

You use signals to create vehicle models that help standardize the format of your vehicles. Vehicle models enforce consistent information across multiple vehicles of the same type, so that you can process data from fleets of vehicles. Vehicles created from the same vehicle model inherit the same group of signals. For more information, see Manage AWS IoT FleetWise vehicles.

Each vehicle model has a status field that contains the state of the vehicle model. The state can be one of the following values:

  • ACTIVE – The vehicle model is active.

  • DRAFT – The configuration of the vehicle model is saved.

Important

  • You must have a signal catalog before you can create a vehicle model using the CreateModelManifest API operation. For more information, see Create an AWS IoT FleetWise signal catalog.

  • If you use the AWS IoT FleetWise console to create a vehicle model, AWS IoT FleetWise automatically activates the vehicle model for you.

  • If you use the CreateModelManifest API operation to create a vehicle model, the vehicle model stays in the DRAFT state.

  • You can't create vehicles from vehicle models that are in the DRAFT state. Use the UpdateModelManifest API operation to change vehicle models to the ACTIVE state.

  • You can't edit vehicle models that are in the ACTIVE state.
