I have a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I want to refill transmission fluid but can't find the inlet. Isn't it the same location of level fluid ruler?

Automatic transmission, add fluid in the dipstick hole. You want the engine running to check the fluid. Add only 1/2 qt. at a time max.
If it's manual, the access hole is on the transmission under the vehicle. You'll want a manual to do it right, or pay a shop a nominal fee to do it.

Yes, it IS the same as the transmission dipstick tube. You likely will need a funnel. It IS a pain in the butt!
On the subject, if it has been more than 22,000 miles since the fluid has been changed, you should change it. Nothing ruins a transmission faster than worn out transmission fluid. If you are not a mechanic, (and it sounds like you are not) take it to a repair shop you trust. Many quick-lube stations offer the service for a little over $100.00 bucks. To replace your transmission is about $2500.00..."Pay a little now, or pay alot later"....
