Automatically create Samsara vehicles as assets in SafetyCulture

Learn how to automatically create Samsara vehicles as assets in SafetyCulture.

What is Samsara?

Samsara is a cloud-based fleet management platform that allows businesses to track their vehicles, and equipment in real-time, collect data on their operations, and optimize their workflows to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

An example of the Samsara fleet management system.

Connect Samsara to SafetyCulture to automatically create your vehicles as assets and manage upkeep with inspection schedules, actions, and more. Once connected, the integration syncs engine runtime and odometer readings, and GPS location so you can view usage and location data for each asset.Over time, changes you make to your vehicles in Samsara will also automatically sync to their corresponding assets in SafetyCulture, ensuring details are always up-to-date.

This integration currently doesn't support trailers and equipment in Samsara.

    • Check if each Samsara vehicle already exists in SafetyCulture by checking its "Vehicle Name" against each asset's "Unique ID":
