How to send ride request to nearest driver for a booking?

Is there a way to use the Uber Driver API to be notified when the driver is a certain distance away from doing a pickup?
No, this is not one of the endpoints on the Uber driver API. The existing endpoints are profile, payments, & trips: https://developer.uber.com/docs/drivers/introduction
Real time availability / status of a driver is not a current existing driver API endpoint.
I want to know whether I can use uber api to track the ride real-time basis. I have found uber help suggest the following:
"Can I see the path a rider took during a trip?"
This feature is only available for ongoing UberPOOL rides. The request details return a set of waypoints (incl. pickup and dropoff locations) for each UberPOOL ride. This information is not accessible in the history but just during the ride.
So does it mean it is not applicable to other types of ride? Please let me know. It will be great if someone can suggest exact API endpoint for tracking the ride on a real-time basis.
Thanks.
It can be checked for any type of ride that you've requested
The Ride Request endpoint allows retrieving the status of an ongoing or completed trip that was created by your app
You have a few different options
Ride Request - Map API
Ride Request - Current API
Ride Request - Details API
In the Uber riders app, there is a label displaying if driver is completing a ride before picking me up, with 'Completing a trip nearby'.
Is that info provided in the API somehow?
Uber API currently does not provide info 'Completing a trip nearby' if the driver is completing a ride before picking next trip.
Is it possible to use the Uber API to detect rides that originated from the Uber app?
I'm trying to get a machine learning system to learn when you are using uber.
No, whether a ride originated from the Uber app or from a separate integration is not a field/endpoint in the current Uber API.
Not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for but something that might be helpful is the /history endpoint. "The User Activity endpoint returns a limited amount of data about a user’s lifetime activity with Uber. The response will include pickup and dropoff times, the city the trips took place in, the distance of past requests, and information about which products were requested."

I have created a Uber app(Rides API) and using server token i can able to get
Price and Time estimates.
How can I schedule a driver using Uber api?
If you want to make a request for a ride, you need to POST to /requests. Like agraebe said, you can find documentation on that endpoint here.
This page also has a tutorial on requesting a ride, and the lifecycle of a request, walking you through step by step how requests work.
