Overview

The Cartrack Fleet API helps you connect your systems to fleet data and operations so you can monitor vehicles, automate workflows, and build fleet-facing products.

This page is the recommended starting point for both business and technical teams before going deeper into endpoint details.

What the Fleet API enables​

Examples of what you can do with the Fleet API include, but are not limited to:

  • View vehicle, trip, and event data to improve operational visibility.
  • Integrate driver, fuel, route, and delivery workflows into your own platforms.
  • Trigger business actions from telemetry and status updates.
  • Build internal dashboards, alerts, and process automations.

Follow these pages in order for a faster and clearer setup:

  1. Confirm your integration goals in Use Cases.
  2. Prepare account access and roles in Prerequisites.
  3. Get your regional API endpoint in Base URLs.
  4. Generate and test credentials in Authentication.
  5. Run your first request with Quick Start.
  6. Harden for production with Rate Limiting and Webhook Notifications.
  7. Implement specific business flows under Guides and full API References.

How business and technical teams can collaborate​

  • Agree on priority workflows first (for example: tracking, delivery, driver assignment, or fuel monitoring).
  • Define data ownership and expected refresh behavior (pull APIs vs webhook events).
  • Validate API access, roles, and environments before development starts.
  • Pilot with a small fleet scope, then scale after monitoring and error-handling checks.
