Add third-party vehicle data by API connection

Get instant access to vehicle data in your third-party account(s) with Trimble Ag Software’s built in API connection. Our API (short for digital handshake) makes it easy for organization administrators to set up a wireless link with our partners, so that you have all of your farm’s precision data in one place. To learn more about data compatibility between Trimble Ag Software and other displays, file types and third-party accounts, click here.

Success tip: before linking vehicle data to your account, check that field names are the same in both the display and on Trimble Ag Software. This prevents the creation of duplicate fields and ensures data is associated with the right location on your farm.

  8. A new web page will open with the login page for your third-party account, where you can enter your credentials and sign in to your third-party account
