Platform API

Welcome to the GPS-Trace Platform API Documentation!

GPS-Trace is a telematics platform designed to meet the needs of both individual users and businesses.
Our software provides a diverse range of features that seamlessly process data from GPS trackers.
Whether you're tracking vehicles or monitoring pets, GPS-Trace has you covered.

Our platform offers several applications tailored to different user needs. 

Business Solutions:

  • Partner Panel: This is a comprehensive tool tailored for our partners, enabling seamless business management.
    Partner Panel provides partners with the ability to create client accounts with access to applications like Forguard, Ruhavik, and Petovik. Partners can create units within these accounts, link trackers to them, establish tariffs, access analytics, provide client support, and more.
    When clients activate their Ruhavik and Petovik accounts, they gain ownership, allowing partners partial access only if the client enables Service mode in the application.
  • Forguard: Vehicle tracking application distributed solely through our partner network and doesn't have open registration.
    Forguard solution provides partners with full control over clients' accounts.
    Partners can set limits, customize modules, and manage client accounts using custom Client Plans. Partners have access to client accounts at any time, enabling them to configure application design, logos, automatic account locking, and more.
    Forguard's flexible billing system operates on a per-unit per day payment basis, allowing partners to manage billing efficiently.

For personal use (apps with open registration):

  • Ruhavik: A user-friendly application developed for vehicle tracking.
  • Petovik: An application designed for pets tracking.

Our partners include:

  • GPS device dealers
  • Fleet operators and managers
  • GPS device manufacturers and resellers
  • Telematics service providers. 

If you're selling GPS devices or offering telematic services, GPS-Trace provides an intuitive app with over 2000 supported device types and essential features.

The Platform API lets partners do a bunch of things easily, just like they can in the Partner Panel:

  • Create client accounts with access to applications like Forguard, Ruhavik, and Petovik.
  • Set up automatic account locks or block accounts
  • Get login links for client accounts.
  • Create units in client accounts.
  • Check stats for accounts and units.
  • Plus more: There are lots of other things partners can do with the Platform API to manage their business smoothly.

To start using the Platform API, the first step is to become our partner and gain access to the Partner Panel.
Once you have access, the next step is to obtain an authorization token. This token can be obtained within the Partner Panel itself, specifically on the Tokens tab.

This token is essential for API usage, as it must be included in the "X-AccessToken" header of every request to authenticate the user's identity. For more detailed information about obtaining and using the authorization token, please refer to the "Authorization Token" section.

HTTP Status Codes

The following table provides information about the various HTTP status codes that the API might return.
Each status code indicates the result of the requested operation and helps in identifying the type of response or error encountered.
