Build live location sharing for customers in 3 steps
If you can live track your $5 ride turn-by-turn, why should it be hard to track other things of value? Where’s my Ethiopian food order, or my kid’s school bus, or my prescription meds, or the 2:30 pm plumber appointment, or the same day courier delivery that I paid extra bucks for?
Businesses delivering products and services to customers within time-critical windows have started using apps for their mobile workforce to manage their work. Now, these apps need to become location-aware like those ride-sharing apps. It’s as easy as 1 - 2 - 3. Read on to track your first trip in minutes!
Track your first Trip in under 10 min
Step 1
Add one of our SDK to your work app and start tracking immediately.
You will see your newly tracked device showing up on the dashboard. Click on the location dot to open the device detail page (https://dashboard.hypertrack.com/devices/<device_id>).
Copy the Device ID from the URL for step 2.
Step 2
Create a Trip going to the customer’s location using the Trips API.
The Trips API responds with a shareable tracking URL: views.share_url. Copy it for step 3.
Step 3
Share the tracking link (similar to https://trck.at/abcxyz) with the customer and start driving towards the destination.
Oh and there’s more...
