No, Beacon doesn’t automatically push updates. Instead, our API responds to requests sent programmatically from your system. Here’s how you can set it up:

  • Trigger Example 1: Call the POST endpoint to start tracking a container when a container number is saved in your ERP.

  • Trigger Example 2: Call the GET endpoint every 4 hours to fetch the latest ETA for containers until the related PO in your ERP is closed.
