Is there a way to get a currently accepted Lyft ride request info along with passenger info?












1















I am trying to display a passenger's name every time a driver accepts a ride request. Is this possible? I couldn't find anything about this in the api documentation. Note: I will only have the driver authenticated.

          Yes you can get the passenger's name by calling the GET /v1/profile endpoint.



          curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" 
          'https://api.lyft.com/v1/profile'

          {
          "id": "123456789",
          "first_name": "Rick",
          "last_name": "Sanchez",
          "has_taken_a_ride": true
          }

          The passenger's name is also available on the ride request itself:



          curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token> " 
          -H "Content-Type: application/json"
          -d '{"ride_type" : "lyft", "origin" : {"lat" : 37.77663, "lng" : -122.39227 }, "destination" : {"lat" : 37.771, "lng" : -122.39123, "address" : "Mission Bay Boulevard North" } }'
          'https://api.lyft.com/v1/rides'
