The + Integration button is in the top right.

Find your carrier or broker in the list
Many carriers and brokers have a predefined integration — choose it if yours is listed, since it enables real-time data exchange. If it isn’t listed, choose Carrier Portal, which works for anyone.A predefined integration shows setup instructions at the top of the window. Follow them to turn it on — see Finish Setting Up a Predefined Integration.

Enter your account manager's email
Confirm the account manager’s name, and leave Also add this broker to quoting integrations when Owlery can match their brokerage ticked. This makes them available to quote without any extra setup — see Preferred Brokers.

Finish Setting Up a Predefined Integration
Each predefined integration shows its own setup instructions in the blue box at the top of the Manage Integration window. They’re written for that carrier or broker, so follow them as written. Most instructions ask for two things:- Your account details: enter your login or account ID for that carrier’s or broker’s system in the fields below the instructions.
- Access on their side: ask your account manager at the carrier or broker to turn on API access for Owlery. This happens in their system, not yours.
What Happens Next
- Owlery already knows this carrier or broker: they’re available for quoting and tendering straight away.
- Owlery doesn’t know them yet: they get an email invite to join your network. They confirm their MC/DOT number during onboarding, and then they’re available to quote and tender.
Choose What Happens When You Pick This Carrier
Each carrier or broker’s card on the Integrations page has a Preferred action when assigning the carrier setting. It decides which action comes first when you pick this carrier on a quote:- Send tender (default): sends the carrier a load offer to accept.
- Select carrier: records your choice without sending a tender, so you can finalize details before you tender.
