Error 405 trying to reset totaldistance

I am trying to update the toaldistance and hours with a python script
but I got an error 405

Error updating device accumulators: 405 Client Error: Method Not Allowed for url: https://traccar.ipcs.synology.me/devices/4/accumulators

here is my python script :

import requests
import json

def update_device_accumulators(server_url, device_id, total_distance, hours, api_key):
    """
    Updates the total distance and hours of a device using the Traccar API.

    Args:
        server_url (str): The base URL of the Traccar server.
        device_id (int): The ID of the device to update.
        total_distance (float): The new total distance in meters.
        hours (float): The new total hours.
        api_key (str): The API key for authentication.

    Returns:
        bool: True if the update was successful, False otherwise.
    """

    url = f"{server_url}/devices/{device_id}/accumulators"
    headers = {
        "Authorization": f"Basic {api_key}",  # Assuming Basic Auth
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    }
    payload = {
        "deviceId": device_id,
        "totalDistance": total_distance,
        "hours": hours
    }

    try:
        response = requests.put(url, headers=headers, json=payload)
        response.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for bad status codes
        return True
    except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
        print(f"Error updating device accumulators: {e}")
        return False
    except json.JSONDecodeError as e:
        print(f"Error decoding response: {e}")
        return False



# Example Usage (replace with your actual values)
server_url = "https://traccar.ipcs.synology.me"  # Replace with your Traccar server URL
device_id = 4  # Replace with the actual device ID
total_distance = 10000.0  # Replace with the new total distance
hours = 5.0  # Replace with the new total hours
api_key = "Traccar" #replace with your username and password

success = update_device_accumulators(server_url, device_id, total_distance, hours, api_key)

if success:
    print("Device accumulators updated successfully!")
else:
    print("Failed to update device accumulators.")

I am stuck, thanks for any help

I think you're missing api in the path. In general I recommend comparing your API requests with what the official web app sends.

if I api I got this error :

Error updating device accumulators: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://traccar.ipcs.synology.me/api/devices/4/accumulators

If I try to reset the totaldistance from the web UI, the url is :

https://traccar.ipcs.synology.me/settings/accumulators/4

what is correct ?

I'm talking about the API web uses, not the web page URL.

ok, but if I add api in the url I got error 400
I am new with traccar, how to see the API web use ?

Typically you would use your browser developer tools. It's not Traccar specific.

ok, but with python, I have no browser developer tools ?

must the api be added in the url ?

https://traccar.ipcs.synology.me/api/devices/4/accumulators

but with api added I got an error 400

and without api I got an error 405

thanks for your help

ok, it works now... the json was not good
