Public Redirect URLs

<< Back to TrackAbout API and Integration Points

• The following published URLs will not change over time and will be supported indefinitely.

• Note that these URLs do not provide for authentication. That is, you cannot specify username/password as part of the request. Instead, upon the first request to a URL, the user will be redirected to the standard login screen. Upon successful login, the user will then be automatically redirected to the requested page.

• All URLs must begin with the path to the server (i.e. "https://www.trackabout.com"), so this is omitted below.

• Any special characters or spaces in the querystring portion of the URL must be properly url-encoded. For reference, see http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/ref_urlencode.asp
  • For example, replace a plus sign "+" with "%2B". So 12300+12345 becomes 12300%2B12345.

• These URLs are implemented as regular-expression-based URL redirects, so there are no ?, & or = characters.

• If you require shortcut URLs to be added to our public API, let us know.

Asset URLs

URL	Redirects To
/barcode/(a barcode)	The Asset Search results page, or directly to Asset History page if only one match is found.
/tag/(a tag, RFID or barcode)	Redirects to the Asset Search results page, or directly to Asset History page if only one match is found.
/sn/(physical asset serial number)	Redirects to the Asset Search results page, or directly to Asset History page if only one match is found.

Customer URLs

These all work with either /cust or /customer. We will show /customer in all examples below. Be sure to use the full customer number.

If you are using TECSYS and the link is to a ship-to, then include the full customer+ship-to number. Be sure to url encode the plus sign with %2B. So the customer ID 12300+12345 becomes 12300%2B12345 in the examples below.

URL	Redirects To
/customer/(a customer ID)	Customer Detail page. If more than one match, then redirects to the Customer Search results page.
/customer/(a customer ID)/assetlist	Asset List page. If more than one match, then redirects to the Customer Search results page.
/customer/(a customer ID)/assetbalance	Asset Balance page. If more than one match, then redirects to the Customer Search results page.
/customer/(a customer ID)/rentalbalance	Rental Balance page. If more than one match, then redirects to the Customer Search results page.

Order/Invoice/Delivery Ticket/Packing Slip/PPS URLs

Some of our customers use the term "invoices", others call them "orders", "packing slips", "delivery tickets", or "PPS". This is the number used by drivers during deliveries.
