# GET /positions/{ResourceIdentifier}#resourceType

`GET /positions/{ResourceIdentifier}#resourceType`

> **Deprecated.**

Get the position information for a given resource.

This action is no longer supported. Calls to retrieve the position information should use the [GetResourcePosition](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-wireless/2020-11-22/apireference/API_GetResourcePosition.html) API operation instead.

## Path parameters

- `ResourceIdentifier` string, required

## Query parameters

- `resourceType` 'WirelessDevice' | 'WirelessGateway', required

## Response `200`

Success

- GetPositionResponse — This operation is no longer supported.
  - `Position` PositionCoordinateValue[] — The position information of the resource.
  - `Accuracy` object — The accuracy of the estimated position in meters. An empty value indicates that no position data is available. A value of ‘0.0’ value indicates that position data is available. This data corresponds to the position information that you specified instead of the position computed by solver.
    - `HorizontalAccuracy` number, float — The horizontal accuracy of the estimated position, which is the difference between the estimated location and the actual device location.
    - `VerticalAccuracy` number, float — The vertical accuracy of the estimated position, which is the difference between the estimated altitude and actual device latitude in meters.
  - `SolverType` 'GNSS' — The type of solver used to identify the position of the resource.
  - `SolverProvider` 'Semtech' — The vendor of the positioning solver.
  - `SolverVersion` string — The version of the positioning solver.
  - `Timestamp` string — The timestamp at which the device's position was determined.

## Other responses

- `480` — ValidationException
- `481` — AccessDeniedException
