What is an API (and why should you care)?
An API (Application Programming Interface) allows two different systems to communicate with each other. In corporate mobility, this means your transportation platform can connect seamlessly with your ERP, CRM, booking tool, or billing system.
Key benefits of using APIs in mobility
- Automation: user, trip, and payment data are synchronized automatically, without manual intervention.
- Scalability: you can grow without duplicating tasks or adding unnecessary staff.
- Traceability: every action is recorded automatically in a verifiable way.
- Improved user experience: users see real-time, up-to-date information with fewer errors and delays.
Common use cases
From integrating with Google Calendar to schedule trips, to connecting with internal payroll systems to automatically log work-related travel, APIs make connected mobility possible. With Deiviator, you can link your existing systems without having to rebuild your digital architecture.
What should a good mobility API include?
- Clear, publicly available documentation.
- Responsive technical support.
- Secure access tokens (OAuth, JWT).
- Well-structured RESTful endpoints for users, trips, fleet management, and billing.
Conclusion
APIs are not just an IT concern—they are the foundation for scaling operations without friction. Deiviator was designed from day one as an API-first solution to enable efficient, secure, and scalable integrations.
