Explanation and Concepts

TruckMate APIs are built using RESTful protocol, the most common method for safe and secure information transfer over the Internet.

Our APIs perform two essential functions:

• They create, retrieve, update or delete TruckMate data and share it among various applications. This provides a single source of truth for information ranging from customer details to your rating rules.
• They perform tasks on that data to get a desired result. The example below on this page shows how data pulled from APIs can be used to automate the process of completing and processing a New Quote form for customers.

Access levels can also be set for data available through the APIs. For example, an internal application might have access to all of your fleet’s records, while you limit a customer’s access to only their records.
