Telematics Guru API

The Telematics Guru API is the set of official integration options for getting data out of Telematics Guru and sending data into Telematics Guru. If you searched “Telematics Guru API,” start here, then choose the page below that matches what you’re trying to achieve. For the modern, flexible way to query TG data, go straight to the GraphQL API for Telematics Guru.

How to choose the right Telematics Guru API page

• I want to query TG data efficiently - Use the GraphQL API for Telematics Guru to fetch exactly the fields you need (great for dashboards and custom reports). 
   
• I want a targeted REST how-to for a specific task - Use the REST guides like Retrieving Telemetry Data via the Telematics Guru API for raw telemetry pulls or Query Multi-Asset Location Share via API for shareable tracking links. 
  
   

GraphQL API for Telematics Guru

Use this when you want the best way to retrieve TG data with precise control over what fields come back. GraphQL is ideal when you need filtered queries across objects (for example assets, trips, drivers, geofences, departments) and want to avoid oversized responses. Start here: GraphQL API for Telematics Guru.

Telematics Guru Release Notes

Use this when you need to understand what has changed recently in Telematics Guru—especially if you’re building or maintaining an integration and want to know when new API capabilities or data fields became available. Go here: Telematics Guru Release Notes.

REST Guides and Common API Tasks

These pages are the “do this one thing” guides for common Telematics Guru API operations. Choose the task that matches what you’re trying to build.

Retrieving Telemetry Data via the Telematics Guru API

Use this when you need raw telemetry for an asset over a time range (for example position points, speed, and related tracking fields) pulled programmatically for reporting, analytics, or external processing. Start here: Retrieving Telemetry Data via the Telematics Guru API.

Query Multi-Asset Location Share via API

Use this when you want to create temporary tracking links that can be shared with third parties without giving them a Telematics Guru login. This is typically used for short-term visibility (for example sharing a set of assets with an external party). Go here: Query Multi-Asset Location Share via API.

Retrieving Asset Details via the Telematics Guru API

Use this when you need asset and organization metadata (IDs, details used to identify assets in other API calls, and reference information for building integrations). Start with the guide here: Retrieving Asset Details via the Telematics Guru API.

Integration and Third-Party Support

These pages cover scenarios where Telematics Guru is part of a broader ecosystem—either receiving data from other hardware, or pushing events/data to other platforms.

Third-Party Device API in Telematics Guru

Use this when you need to send telemetry into Telematics Guru from non-Digital Matter hardware. This is the documentation for the “3rd Party Device API,” which ingests data via HTTP POST so the device can appear and behave like a normal TG-tracked asset. Go here: Third-Party Device API in Telematics Guru.

Webhook Integration with Telematics Guru

Use this when you want Telematics Guru to push data outward automatically when events occur (for example alerts or other system triggers), so another platform can react in real time. Start here: Webhook Integration with Telematics Guru.

Next Steps

If you’re building a new integration, begin with the GraphQL API for Telematics Guru for modern querying, then use the REST task guides for specific operations like retrieving telemetry or creating location share links. If you’re integrating third-party hardware, go to the Third-Party Device API, and if you need event-driven outbound data, start with Webhook Integration with Telematics Guru. For changes and new capabilities, monitor the Telematics Guru Release Notes.
