Obtaining the App ID:

Verizon Connect Reveal integration setup:

  2. Request Account Integration which should send the case up to the App Dev group.
  3. Verizon’s App Dev team will then ok the integration and pass the details back down to Tier 1 support who will contact you with the details.  This usually takes 2 to 3 days.
  4. If this does not include a set of credentials for use by our downloader then request a new login/password pair for that.
  5. Provide RapidLog with the credentials so we can log in and create the needed App ID and register our app for that customer.
    1. The easiest way to do this is the start a Live Chat
    2. The App ID can be generated at: https://fim.us.fleetmatics.com/#/home/login
