What changes when Tekmetric and Central are connected

Real-time availability, every time.

Central checks your live Tekmetric calendar before offering a time, so customers only hear slots that are actually open.

Appointments booked directly.

Once a customer picks a time, Central books it straight into Tekmetric. No staff member has to touch the calendar.

How it works

Central connects to your Tekmetric account with a simple one-time setup, then handles customer matching and appointment availability in real time.

Connect Your Shop

Enter your shop ID, found in your Tekmetric URL, and complete a one-time login through a secure browser window. No API key or developer setup is required.

Match Customers & Vehicles

Set your preferred matching rules directly in the action instructions. Central can match existing records by name, VIN, or both, based on how your shop manages its data.

Check Availability Live

Central checks appointment availability directly against Tekmetric on every call, so scheduling always uses up-to-date information without storing appointment data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does anything sync back from Tekmetric into Central?

No. The connection is one-way, from Central into Tekmetric. Central checks availability and books appointments directly, but doesn't store or sync appointment data on its own side.

Will this create duplicate customer or vehicle records?

Not by default. Matching can be configured to check against existing records, based on however your shop wants to match them.

What can Central actually do in Tekmetric?

Central checks calendar availability and books appointments.

How do I connect Tekmetric?

Enter your shop ID, found in your Tekmetric URL, and complete a one-time login through a secure browser window. No API key required.

Does every call touch Tekmetric?

Only calls involving checking availability or booking an appointment. Calls unrelated to scheduling can move on without touching Tekmetric at all.

Does this connect to EA or Ask as well?

No. This integration is Frontdesk only.
