Before you start

Create FleetPulse API credentials

Before you can connect FleetPulse to Alvys, you'll need to set up API access through FleetPulse.

Log into your FleetPulse account and create a new standard user. This user will be dedicated exclusively for API access.

Contact your FleetPulse representative and request that this new user be upgraded for API access.

Important: The user must be explicitly enabled for API access. Without this step, the credentials may expire over time, causing the integration to fail. API-enabled users have long-term, stable access and ensure uninterrupted data flow into Alvys.

Once the user is upgraded, you'll receive a username and password. Keep these credentials handy for the next step.

Step-by-step instructions

Activate the integration in Alvys

Once you have your credentials, you're ready to configure FleetPulse in Alvys.

Map trailers for location tracking

Now that the integration is configured, you need to tell Alvys which FleetPulse Unit ID corresponds to each trailer.

Go to Assets in the left menu and select Trailers.

Double-click the trailer you want to configure, then scroll down to the ELD Integrations section and click Add Integration.

Select FleetPulse from the dropdown, enter the FleetPulse Unit ID in the Integration ID field, and click Save.
