Location Sharing

Introduction

Live Asset locations can be shared from the platform, via a link, to non-platform users. These links are valid for a set time period, chosen by the sharing party.

The link includes the name of the Asset, updated positions as the Asset updates, and general routes the Asset may be taking to the destination. Once the time limit expires, the link will become defunct.

Set Up

The Location Sharing feature is enabled on Client Groups or individual Clients, under Application / Features respectively. By default the feature is disabled.

1. Enable the Overview Page,
