| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are Public Map Links? | Public Map Links allow fleet managers to share a live, read-only view of a vehicle group (and optional landmarks) with people outside their organization, without requiring a login. These links can be sent to customers, partners, or used on office displays. |
| Who has access to Public Map Links? | Only users with the Advanced Admin add-on (previously Enterprise) will have access. |
| Where can users create and manage these links? | – Create a Public Map Link from the Portal Map Page by selecting a vehicle group. – Create and manage links in the Admin: Vehicle Group tab. – View which vehicle groups already have an active shared link. |
| Can a user share multiple links for the same vehicle group? | No. Each vehicle group can have one public link. This link can be used repeatedly, but users cannot create multiple separate links for the same group. |
| Can multiple vehicle groups be included in a single map? | Not at this time. Users can only share one vehicle group per Public Map Link. |
| What kind of data is visible on the public map? | – Real-time locations of the vehicles in the selected group – Optional landmark groups (e.g., job sites, yards) – Simplified UI without portal-level features – No login is required, but viewers cannot interact with the map beyond zoom/pan |
| Are there any planned enhancements? | Yes, several enhancements are under consideration for future iterations: – Allow users to copy embeddable code to add a Public Map to their website. – Share a map of a single vehicle – Set expiration dates for links – Add color-coded trails based on recency – View PTO, maintenance, or input status – Define active hours for link visibility – View an audit log of who created or edited links |
| What should I know about public visibility? | The maps are public-facing and do not require authentication. You, the customer, are responsible for the data you share. We do not control or limit access to a shared link once it’s created. |
| Can I still use Customer Sites in Classic? | Yes. This feature will remain active in Classic for the time being. |
