I am trying to build a process to consume history api of Uber to display details of the users trips on one of my webpage. Has anyone done this?
I see that api definition on the UBER site
https://developer.uber.com/docs/rides/api/v12-history
However this does not provide how to provide the driver id? How can i get to the history of one particular driver?
All i need is trip details for every driver - assuming the driver id is available.
Any request sample will actually help.
Uber currently does not have API endpoints that provide information about driver activity. This is something we are considering, but at this time we do not have any public plans for a release.
Thanks for your interest in the Uber API. Follow #Uber_API and visit devblog.uber.com for updates and announcements.

I have just submitted an application for access to the Uber Driver API including details of my intended use of the service for the benefit of drivers.
Uber's response was "we will let you know if we think there is a fit".
Does anyone know if this is literally true? Or is there some period of
time after which I assume that my application has been rejected?
Better still, is there a way to find out a rejection status and appeal?
Uber as of now don't provide a way to track the progress of your application to access the Driver API, If your use case is really helpful for the driver and Uber also think that is, along with other parameters like number of current user base etc., they might consider.
You can always checkout the developer support page
I've recently seen this message:
This product is deprecated and will no longer be supported on May 31st, 2018. If you are starting a new project you should use deep links to m.uber.com. See the migration guide on how to link to the latest Uber rider experience.
Here's a screenshot of this message
Keeping in mind that this widget offers these functionalities(as does the REST API):
Selecting a service (e.g., uberX, UberBlack, etc.)
Specifying pickup and dropoff locations
Viewing time and price estimates
Requesting a ride
Will the Rest API be somehow affected by this change?
Will I be able to further make requests like these ones?
GET /v1.2/estimates/price
GET /v1.2/history
GET /v1.2/places/{place_id}
I'm not an Uber representative, and I really kind of feel that asking support from a vendor is the way to go for a vendor specific thing. However, when I read that message and screenshot they are clearly talking about a widget, not a REST api.
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.
Does the public Uber API have the functionality to see how much a driver has made. I can see that companies like SherpaShare are able to pull these values, but I can't find any documentation on how to do this through the API.
