Samsara Driver and Vehicle IDs

Samsara asset IDs are unique values and are used to identify and track assets within the Samsara platform. To make sure the correct driver or vehicle on Samsara is connected to the right driver or vehicle on Fill-Rite, we use Samsara’s Driver and Vehicle IDs.

IDs can be added or edited under Vehicles > Settings > Samsara or Drivers > Settings > Samsara

Notes

  • Samsara doesn’t validate phone numbers or require a country code, so Fill-Rite may not be able to import phone numbers from Samsara if the number is not valid.
  • Fill-Rite doesn’t import duplicate phone numbers. If a driver is missing a phone number on Fill-Rite that was imported from Samsara, check that it isn’t a duplicate in the Fill-Rite system.
