Offloads

Sentiance provides data offloads with Sentiance Insights to the clients on a daily basis.

What are Offloads

The Sentiance platform offers various methods to access and analyze your end-users' data, one of which is through offloads our implementation of a file-based system, typically in json format (or CSV format for older product offerings). Offloads generally contain data for all your users over a specific timeframe, by default a 24-hour tumbling window. Detailed field descriptions can be found below.

While offloads contain much of the core data, they do not include certain elements such as predictions, coaching data, or some fine-grained details.

Please consult with your Sentiance contact person to discuss the offloads before implementing.

Accessing Offloads

Access to offloads is managed by the Sentiance Cloud API, with permissions authorized by API Key Scopes:

OFFLOADS_READ
OFFLOADS_GENERATE_URL

To check available offloads, use an API Key with the OFFLOADS_READ scope. The query example is:

query {
  offloads(from: "2026-03-23", to: "2026-03-23") {
    day
    type
    files {
      format
      link {
        expires_at
        url
      }
      name
      size
    }
  }
}

from and to are always days in the format YYYY-MM-DD. The response looks like the following.

{
  "data": {
    "offloads": [
      {
        "day": "2026-03-23",
        "files": [
          { "format": "json.gz", "link": null, "name": "driving_insights", "size": 5523310 }
        ],
        "type": "OFFLOAD_TYPE_DRIVING_INSIGHTS"
      },
      {
        "day": "2026-03-23",
        "files": [
          { "format": "json.gz", "link": null, "name": "crash_insights", "size": 8943 }
        ],
        "type": "OFFLOAD_TYPE_CRASH_INSIGHTS"
      },
      {
        "day": "2026-03-23",
        "files": [
          { "format": "json.gz", "link": null, "name": "badges", "size": 5284 }
        ],
        "type": "OFFLOAD_TYPE_BADGES"
      },
      {
        "day": "2026-03-23",
        "files": [
          { "format": "json.gz", "link": null, "name": "challenges", "size": 8534 }
        ],
        "type": "OFFLOAD_TYPE_CHALLENGES"
      },
      {
        "day": "2026-03-23",
        "files": [
          { "format": "json.gz", "link": null, "name": "streaks", "size": 3862 }
        ],
        "type": "OFFLOAD_TYPE_STREAKS"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Offloads of several types are available (based on which Sentiance product offering you are using). Each day will contain one offload of each type and each offload item may have one or more associated files to download.

The files list their format, name, size and a link to download that file.

In the response above the link field is null since no links have been generated for these files yet. Link generation is done with an API Key with the scope OFFLOADS_GENERATE_URL.

mutation {
  generate_offload_url(day: "2026-03-23", offload_type: OFFLOAD_TYPE_DRIVING_INSIGHTS) {
    offload {
      day
      type
      files {
        format
        link {
          expires_at
          url
        }
        name
        size
      }
    }
  }
}

To generate a link to the offload files, you must use the generate_offload_url mutation, giving the day of the offload and the type as input. This will respond with

{
  "data": {
    "generate_offload_url": {
      "offload": {
        "day": "2026-03-23",
        "files": [
          {
            "format": "json.gz",
            "link": {
              "expires_at": "2026-04-07T11:32:29Z",
              "url": "https://sentiance-your-offloads.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/00000000000000000000000a/2026-03-23_0/driving_insights.json.gz?..."
            },
            "name": "driving_insights",
            "size": 5523310
          }
        ],
        "type": "OFFLOAD_TYPE_DRIVING_INSIGHTS"
      }
    }
  }
}

Links expire after a set time and must be regenerated if needed. Offloads for the previous day are fully available, while current-day offloads may be incomplete.

Types of Offloads

The following offloads are available based on your product selection on the Sentiance platform. The availability of some granular data fields also depends on your product selection.

Driving Insights

The Driving Insights offload type is a bundle of all the insights related to transports that the Sentiance SDK has detected and processed on the users devices. Each json line contains results for one detected transport for a user, e.g. start time, end time, transport mode, waypoints, driving events, driving scores, ... For a detailed explanation of the attributes, see the Driving Insights.

Other

Feedback

These offloads contain information about feedback provided by your users about our transport mode and occupant role predictions. This requires an integration of the mobile app with the Sentiance Feedback API (for Android: FeedbackApi, for iOS: Feedback).

App Events

These offloads contain events generated by your user by using the mobile app. This requires an integration of the mobile app with the Sentiance backend API to submit logevents.

Off-the-grids

Off-the-grids correspond to segments of time when the user was offline and not sending data from their mobile device to our platform. For an explanation of the possible of the grid reasons see here.

Deprecated types of Offloads

The following offload types are generated from results that are computed based on Cloud processing and are now deprecated. They are being phased out in a transition to full on-device processing for Driving Insights features.

The file format of these offloads is columnar CSV, and do not support nested data fields to the same extend as the json file format, and thus require additional post-processing to join all the attributes for one individual transport.

Driving Insights

Transports

Transports represent the period of time a user moved from one venue to another. The transports offloads contain a list of transports and their corresponding predicted transport mode (e.g. car, train, bus, etc.), duration and top speed.
