Steps
Complete the SIA and obtain REST credentials as required for any Truckstop platform integration
Identify the carrier and document type needed (insurance certificate, W9, permit, etc.) using the Expanded Carrier API first
Call the Document API with the carrier/document identifiers to request the file
Decode the returned byte-stream-style string into the actual document format on your side
Store documents per your own retention policy - Truckstop's API returns the document on request, it does not manage your archival
Known gotchas
The document is returned as an encoded byte stream, not a direct file URL - integrators who expect a downloadable link will mishandle the response
Document availability depends on the carrier having actually completed onboarding/monitoring with Truckstop RMIS; a carrier record existing doesn't guarantee every document type is present
