The GraphQL API is Live!

For those of you who have been looking for an easy way to integrate location into your products, the solution is here! We're proud to announce the public launch of the GraphQL API, delivering instant integration and unprecedented observability into precision location for GNSS-powered devices. 

Keep reading for more information about the API, or if you are looking for a technical overview, head on over to the API docs.

Effortless Integration

The GraphQL API radically simplifies development, eliminating the need for vendor libraries, intermediate data stores or working with convoluted networks of REST endpoints. Seamlessly integrate precise location into your products and services - all at a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions.

You can now send a single HTTPS request and receive plain, well-formed JSON data that can be used natively without an intermediate datastore or application. Getting all the data needed from a single request drastically simplifies integration for developers. In most cases, the solution can be integrated into a RTK-enabled product within a single day, without costly additional infrastructure.

Real-Time Observability

Troubleshoot with ease and enhance your user experience. Our GraphQL API offers real-time observability, allowing you to visualize device positions and detect common issues instantaneously.

GraphQL subscriptions are available for real-time applications, enabling you to subscribe to changes and events. Create reactive, event-based systems rather than having to juggle timers, polling intervals, and quotas.

Enhanced Device Management

Utilize powerful tagging capabilities and arbitrary metadata for easy device tracking and customer management. Keep track of your devices and customers effortlessly.

Synchronize Your Operations

Our GraphQL API and web client work together to give you the best of both worlds. Operations in the web client and API are synchronized in real-time, enabling you to integrate the API with your systems while using our web client for the same devices and services.
