What is an API Kit?
API means Application Programming Interface which includes a set of protocols that allows technology products and services to interact with each other.
API Tool Kit is developed by Uffizio which contains multiple fleet management software APIs into one bundle. These API plugins are ready-to-use software extensions that can be embedded into any third-party software.
Importance of API in telematics and fleet management domains
APIs act as a path through which multiple software are able to interact with each other. In particular, the companies which offer Software as a Service (SaaS) have to develop APIs which allow their technology or software to adapt more functionalities according to the needs of their clients, also helping them to integrate with their software and websites.
In the telematics industry, the companies which are operating a large number of vehicles have to manage a variety of software in their systems such as CRM, fleet management, or billing systems in order to execute the different aspects of their business activities.
Moreover, fleet managers may require multiple information about their vehicles like fuel consumption, transactions, total trips, temperature monitoring, driver monitoring, etc from other platforms in their systems. This can be done with the help of APIs these APIs get connected with the manager’s internal systems and provide accurate information regarding the vehicle.
How Uffizio API Integration is easy and helpful?
Fleet leaders handling their business know the critical importance of having the right software to get their work done. One of the challenges faced by fleet managers is to make use of different platforms and Software, each requiring its own API interfaces. It can be understood that establishing a connection with a single API can be somewhat easy. But what if you want to integrate multiple APIs in your software? It could be time-consuming and may even increase your expense.
But at Uffizio we have built one single integration, no matter how many different vehicles the fleet managers operate. We offer developer-friendly documentation and an API kit. Which makes integrating the API into your fleet management software much faster and easier. So, no need to migrate from your current software as we know the difficulties associated with it. You can fetch important data from our platform to your preferred platform by just plugging into our API kit.
And we are continuously working on developing new APIs day by day which can be handy and useful for the fleet management industry.
Benefits of using Uffizio API Kit
Authentication:
Businesses and fleet managers have to make use of multiple APIs to connect their services to transfer data. There are numerous sensitive data which may be your vehicle information, driver’s information, company expense details, etc which you transfer using an API, But what if this data is broken, exposed, or hacked as APIs consist of major data breaches which may impact your business very badly So for this, we have provided top-notch security in our APIs. Here only the person who has authentication or security rights can only access the system. So there will be no chance of any data getting stolen or lost.
Ease to adopt & User Friendly:
As we know multiple clients have their own set of requirements. Suppose one client needs to implement 4 API parameters and another client just needs to implement 2 API parameters in its software which could be time-consuming for both fleet managers and software providers. So to overcome such types of scenarios we create our Uffizio API toolkit consisting of bundles of APIs in one place so that fleet managers can easily access all the different APIs and get information on their system.
Fully Documented:
Maintaining multiple data like latitude and longitude, fuel consumption data, alerts generated by the vehicle during the trip, overspeeding data, etc for both fleet managers and the companies providing their software can be a tedious and challenging task. To overcome this challenge we started providing data through APIs. We developed one API Toolkit and documented it in such a way that whoever wants to access the data in whatever format he/she can retrieve them without any difficulty.
Development Cost:
Development Cost: Developing and integrating a single API can be easy but developing multiple APIs for your business would increase your overall budget and consume more time. But with our advanced API development kit, you don’t need to worry about all this process of development, maintenance, and cost. Here, with the help of our API kit you just need to push all your required data from our servers, and just within a click, all the information will be visible right on your desktop screen.
