API & INTEGRATIONS / CONNECT YOUR WORK

Let tracking information support the rest of your business.

Use the platform API to connect approved systems with tracking information and supported actions. Define the business workflow first, then confirm the endpoints, permissions and data needed to implement it.

01 / GPS API & BUSINESS INTEGRATIONS

Useful integration starting points

Operational views

Bring relevant vehicle or object information into an internal workspace. Keep the source, freshness and meaning of each field clear to the people using it.

Activity & reporting

Connect supported journey, event and report information with the records your business already maintains. Confirm formats and identifiers rather than assuming two systems describe activity in the same way.

Administration workflows

Use supported account or object actions where the integration has the appropriate permissions. Keep automated changes limited to the approved purpose.

02 / GPS API & BUSINESS INTEGRATIONS

Scope an integration that can be tested

  • Describe the external system and the specific user problem to solve.
  • List the data you need to read and any actions you need to perform.
  • Confirm endpoint coverage, authentication, permissions and applicable limits.
  • Define how errors, missing data and delayed updates should be handled.
  • Use authorised test data and agree acceptance criteria before production use.
03 / GPS API & BUSINESS INTEGRATIONS

Keep access intentional

Minimum permissions

Give the integration only the access needed for its job. API access is application access, not source-code ownership or server control.

Protect credentials

Keep tokens and other credentials out of browser code, public repositories and enquiry messages. Use the approved secure setup process when access is provisioned.

Agree responsibilities

Confirm who builds, operates and maintains the integration, including third-party costs and changes. No particular API limit, endpoint or external-system compatibility is promised without review.
