This integration links Verizon Connect’s vehicle GPS tracking with Traffio’s booking and scheduling software, giving you complete visibility into your fleet’s operations.
You can view real-time location data, track past journeys, and generate reports on vehicle usage outside of assigned bookings. This helps you monitor your fleet, ensuring accountability and improving vehicle efficiency.
Additionally, the integration tracks which drivers are assigned to each vehicle, using Traffio data as the main source.
Note: For customers who use Verizon's driver identification key fobs, this feature is disabled by default.
To get started:
Contact Verizon to set up a Verizon Connect Reveal account and request integration with Traffio. Once your account is activated, Verizon will provide you with your Traffio app login credentials, which you can then use within Traffio.

Auto Driver Assignments
If enabled, Traffio will automatically sync driver-to-vehicle assignments with Verizon for all linked drivers and vehicles. Ongoing assignments will be determined by the vehicles assigned to individuals in Traffio, while temporary assignments will be based on specific driver allocations from completed bookings.
Ongoing assignments are sent to Verizon whenever a linked vehicle is assigned or reassigned to a linked person in Traffio. They are also pushed when a new linked vehicle or person is created.
When a linked person is unassigned from a linked vehicle in Traffio, the ongoing assignment will be removed in Verizon.
Temporary assignments are created when a works docket is submitted for the driver, confirming their shift completion.
Note: If you are using Verizon's driver identification key fobs, this feature should be disabled.
Syncing with Verizon
The “Sync with Verizon Connect” button will:
Import your vehicles from Verizon into Traffio, along with their current locations, to be displayed on the 'Vehicle Locations' map
Initially import the last 30 days of vehicle GPS history data
Please allow a few minutes for the sync process to complete.
After that, new data from Verizon Connect will automatically sync with Traffio in the background twice daily.
Review Drivers & Push More People to Verizon if required
Traffio will automatically push individuals identified as 'drivers' to Verizon and match them here. This is based on people who are currently assigned to a vehicle in Traffio or who have been marked as drivers in past bookings.
To push recently created people in Traffio to Verizon:
Click on the Link Drivers tab
Click + Button beside their name
The person will be pushed to Verizon as a new driver and automatically linked in Traffio.
Note: Do not create drivers within the Verizon Reveal portal. This integration is designed to automate the driver creation process for you.
If drivers were created in the Verizon portal before connecting to Traffio, they will have been imported into Traffio. You’ll now need to match them with their corresponding employees in Traffio, click save, and then push any other desired people to Verizon as explained above.
