GetAuthentication Token

Contents

DRTrack Web Services includes a full of set of APIs for data regarding orders, accounts, and route information. A unique URL is provided for each customer to access the service. Please contact if you are a current DRTrack customer and don’t know your company’s unique URL.

The GetAuthenticationToken API validates User identification info with our Billing and Licensing system. It returns a token that is valid for 24 hours and can be used for all requests within that timeframe.

Testing the Service

To test the DRTrack service, you will need to create a client and use it to call the service. 

class Test
{
    static void Main()
    {
        DRTrackWebServiceClient client = new DRTrackWebServiceClient();
        // Use the 'client' variable to call operations on the service.
        // Always close the client.
        client.Close();
    }

Authentication

Each API call must include an authentication token.
