Welcome to the Radaro API Developer Hub
You'll find comprehensive guides and documentation to help you start working with Radaro API as quickly as possible, as well as support if you get stuck. Let's jump right in!
Radaro Developer Hub
Radaro is an API-first platform and API integration is best practice among our clients. The Radaro API enables seamless, two-way communication between your system and Radaro. API integration allows seamless and automated data transfer between your existing systems into Radaro as well as updates based on activity that occurs within Radaro's platform.
Example:
When a driver marks each job as completed in their Radaro mobile app, our API sends a webhook event with the most up-to-date data related to the job including status updates, proof of delivery photos / signatures, geofencing data, timestamps and more.
Radaro's API enables businesses to leverage real-time insights from the field, retrieve data on an ad-hoc basis and connect data pipelines via webhook event with third party systems (Transportation Management, Order Management, Enterprise Resource Planning and more).
All data is exchanged in JSON format, making integration straightforward for modern web stacks.
What is an API or a Webhook?
An Application Programming Interface (API) enables two-way communication between software applications driven by requests. APIs are request-based, meaning that they operate when requests come from 3rd party systems/applications.
Webhooks allow an application to share information with other applications in real-time. Webhooks are event-based, meaning that they will run when a specific event occurs in the source application.
Webhook events can be sent to multiple URLs at the same time.
This is best practice for complex implementations that require multiple groups / third party systems to be updated simultaneously.
Authentication
All API requests must be authenticated using an API Key.
You can retrieve this from the Radaro Management Portal under Settings → General. Click on the pencil icon to view your API Key.
The credentials must be passed via HTTP headers on every request.
