OneStepGPS is a telematics solution that provides real-time GPS tracking and asset monitoring. This integration allows Alvys to automatically pull location data from your OneStepGPS-equipped trucks and trailers, giving you live visibility on the Asset Map and in dispatch planning.
To get started, you'll need an API key from OneStepGPS, then configure the integration in Alvys and map your assets.
Getting your OneStepGPS API key
Before you can connect OneStepGPS to Alvys, you'll need to request an API key from OneStepGPS support.
Contact OneStepGPS at [email protected] and request an API key. Include a brief description of your intended use (integration with Alvys TMS). Keep this API key handy for the next step.
Setting up the integration in Alvys
Once you have your API key, you're ready to configure OneStepGPS in Alvys.
Navigate to Company Profile by clicking your profile icon in the lower left corner, then select the subsidiary you want to configure and click the Integrations tab.
Expand the ELD section and click the pencil icon on the OneStepGPS card.
Enter your OneStepGPS API Key and click Save.
Alvys will validate your credentials. If everything looks good, the integration will be active.
Mapping assets for location tracking
Now that the integration is configured, you need to tell Alvys which OneStepGPS truck number corresponds to each truck or trailer.
Go to Assets in the left menu and select Trucks or Trailers.
Double-click the asset you want to configure, then scroll down to the ELD Integrations section and click Add Integration.
Select OneStepGPS from the dropdown, enter the truck number (as it appears in OneStepGPS) in the Integration ID field, and click Save.
Repeat this process for each truck or trailer you want to track with OneStepGPS. Once configured, you can view real-time locations on the Asset Map.
FAQ
Where do I find my OneStepGPS truck numbers?
Your OneStepGPS truck numbers should be available in your OneStepGPS portal.
Can I track both trucks and trailers?
Yes, you can configure OneStepGPS tracking for both trucks and trailers by adding the integration to each asset type.
What happens if I enter invalid credentials?
As of February 2025, Alvys validates credentials before saving, so you'll see an error immediately if your API key is incorrect.
