App Store

The Transportial App Store lets you extend your platform with integrations, automations, and third-party tools. Apps connect external systems (telematics, ERP, accounting, board computers) to your transport operations.

How It Works

  1. Browse the app store for available integrations
  2. Install an app to your platform
  3. Configure the app with your credentials and settings
  4. The app receives an access token scoped to the permissions it needs

Browsing Apps

Fetch available apps with optional category filtering:

curl -X GET "https://api.otms.transportial.com/api/app-store/browse/0/20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Filter by category:

curl -X GET "https://api.otms.transportial.com/api/app-store/browse/0/20?categoryId=CATEGORY_UUID" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "message": "OK",
  "totalResults": 42,
  "apps": [
    {
      "id": "app-uuid",
      "name": "Fleet Tracker Pro",
      "description": "Real-time GPS tracking for your entire fleet",
      "logo": { "url": "https://..." },
      "publisher": {
        "name": "Telematics Corp"
      },
      "lastVersion": {
        "version": "2.1.0",
        "releaseNotes": "Added geofencing support"
      },
      "category": {
        "id": "category-uuid",
        "name": "Telematics"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Installing an App

curl -X POST "https://api.otms.transportial.com/api/app/{appId}/install" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

When you install an app:

  1. An AppInstallation record is created for your platform
  2. An AppAccessToken is generated with the permissions the app requires
  3. The installation status transitions from INSTALLING to ACTIVE
  4. You can configure app-specific settings through AppInstallationSettings

Managing Installed Apps

List all apps installed on your platform:

curl -X GET "https://api.otms.transportial.com/api/apps/installed" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Integration Types

Apps can power different integration types on your platform:

Configured Integrations

Data transformation pipelines with filters and data sources. Process events automatically when transport entities change (e.g., sync a new transport order to your ERP).

Manual Integrations

Pre-built connectors for specific platforms — board computers (Transics), payment processors (Stripe), GPS providers (EvoGPS, FleetAccess), and more.

File Template Integrations

File-based data exchange for systems that use EDI, CSV, or XML formats. Upload and download files on a schedule.

Message Automations

Automated notifications triggered by transport events — send status updates to customers, alert drivers, or notify your team when exceptions occur.

API Access Integrations

Expose API endpoints for external platforms to push or pull data from your Transportial environment.

How Integrations Process Data

Integrations use an event-driven queue:

  1. A transport entity changes (order created, status updated, etc.)
  2. An IntegrationObject is added to the processing queue
  3. The integration scheduler (runs every ~10 seconds) picks it up
  4. Filters are applied to decide if the event should be processed
  5. Data sources transform and route the data
  6. Status is updated: SUCCESS, ERROR, or RETRY
Entity Change → IntegrationObject (QUEUE)
    → Scheduler picks up
    → Apply filters
    → Execute data sources
    → SUCCESS / ERROR / RETRY
