Uber Driver API invalid scope error when partner.trips parameter added, do not see it available on developer dashboard

My question is how I can access the driver's history using the Uber's API? What I have tried is including the partners.trips scope and tried multiple variations such as scope=partners.trips, partners.trips.content, trips. All have given me an invalid scope error when I try to authenticate.

I have noticed that I do not see partners.trips as an available option in my developer dashboard page (screenshot of dev dashboard). As of now, I see 2 possible problems that I could be having, but I could not find a solution from the documentation or FAQ.

  • My formatting or syntax is incorrect when I add scope=partners.trips to my authorization step
  • I don't have access to add partners.trips in my default scope and don't have a way to request it from Uber
Solution

  • "Access to the Driver API is currently limited. If you are interested in using this API, you can apply for access on the Drivers Product Page." - https://developer.uber.com/docs/drivers/introduction
