Hello,
I have had some experience with customers reaching out for assistance with linking their Highway account to Geotab services.
On the MyGeotab side of the integration, you essentially need to create a dedicated user specifically for Highway to allow them API access to your data. When setting this up, you will need to establish a First Name, a secure Password, and configure the account with the Service Account authentication type.
Example Configuration:
- Username: Highway_API (or your preferred naming convention)
- First Name: HighwayUser
- Password: [Create a strong, secure password]
- Security Clearance: [Ensure you assign the minimum necessary clearance required by Highway]
- Authentication Type: Service Account
Once created, you will need to provide these credentials to Highway, along with your MyGeotab Database Name, to complete the connection on their end.
A couple of quick side notes:
- ELD Settings Validator: Double-check that all required ELD/HOS information is fully populated and that no flags are thrown in the validator. Missing or invalid compliance data can cause sync issues with third-party integrations.
- Data Privacy: As with any third-party data share, ensure you review the data-privacy implications and permissions to confirm you are only exposing the fleet data necessary for Highway's services.
I hope this helps!
