## Response Elements
<a name="API_DescribeTracker_ResponseElements"></a>

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

 ** [CreateTime](#API_DescribeTracker_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="location-DescribeTracker-response-CreateTime"></a>
The timestamp for when the tracker resource was created in [ ISO 8601](https://www.iso.org/iso-8601-date-and-time-format.html) format: `YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ`.   
Type: Timestamp

 ** [Description](#API_DescribeTracker_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="location-DescribeTracker-response-Description"></a>
The optional description for the tracker resource.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 1000.

 ** [EventBridgeEnabled](#API_DescribeTracker_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="location-DescribeTracker-response-EventBridgeEnabled"></a>
Whether `UPDATE` events from this tracker in EventBridge are enabled. If set to `true` these events will be sent to EventBridge.  
Type: Boolean

 ** [KmsKeyEnableGeospatialQueries](#API_DescribeTracker_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="location-DescribeTracker-response-KmsKeyEnableGeospatialQueries"></a>
Enables `GeospatialQueries` for a tracker that uses a [AWS KMS customer managed key](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/create-keys.html).  
This parameter is only used if you are using a KMS customer managed key.  
If you wish to encrypt your data using your own KMS customer managed key, then the Bounding Polygon Queries feature will be disabled by default. This is because by using this feature, a representation of your device positions will not be encrypted using the your KMS managed key. The exact device position, however; is still encrypted using your managed key.  
You can choose to opt-in to the Bounding Polygon Quseries feature. This is done by setting the `KmsKeyEnableGeospatialQueries` parameter to true when creating or updating a Tracker.
Type: Boolean

 ** [KmsKeyId](#API_DescribeTracker_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="location-DescribeTracker-response-KmsKeyId"></a>
