Direct URL hyperlink to open to a vehicle/asset

Hi-
In an external platform I want to team to be able to open a direct hyperlink directly to focus on a particular screen in geotab - eg. my live vehicle location.

Looking at the URL format - in theory, I thought we would simply be able to enter the vehicle ID and then the map would open (assuming the user is already logged in to mygeotab)... However, it seems to open to whatever filter the user last had open (eg., a different vehicle) and it ignores the parameters in the URL.

Any ideas? Any documentation I'm missing around this topic? Presumably, it's beneficial to a lot of different geotab customers to be able to jump from a TMS, or other platform directly to focused maps/dialogs in mygeotab.

Hi

Are you taking into account that the other user must have access to a vehicle?

Have you tried using the Asset Sharing link feature that is built into Geotab? (I tried to provide instructions on how, but Geotab refuses to let me submit the response if I include the instructions- for some bizarre reason)

Still have questions?
