Integrating Your GPS System

To begin integrating your GPS system with our platform, there are several preliminary steps you must complete. These steps ensure that your GPS data can be correctly processed and utilized within our system.

Accessing the Settings Module

Navigate to the Settings Module: Start by accessing the 'Settings' module within our platform.

Create New Configuration: Click on the 'Create' button.

Module 'Settings'

You will need to fill in the following fields with the appropriate information: 

Module 'Settings'

- Name: Enter a unique name for your GPS configuration.
- Key: This will be specific to the GPS provider, such as 'ruptela key' for Ruptela, 'wialon token' for Wialon, etc.
- Value: Depending on the GPS, this could be a token or URL. For example, a 'frotcom api url' for Frotcom.


The initial step in configuring your system involves specifying the GPS provider you intend to use.
