RideDog is GPS tracking. Connect your RideDog account to see your trackers and live vehicle locations inside your Renta dashboard.
Where to find it
Settings → Integrations, the RideDog GPS Tracking card.
The RideDog GPS Tracking panel with the Connect with RideDog button
How it works
- Connect with RideDog — sends you to RideDog to sign in and approve. Afterwards the card says "RideDog connected. Your trackers will appear shortly."
- Status — Connected, Needs attention, or Not connected, with Connected and Last update dates.
- Reconnect — shown when the link needs attention (an error, or access that was revoked or expired). The message "Connected, but live updates couldn't be set up. Try reconnecting." also means press Reconnect.
- Disconnect — removes the link.
- Pressing cancel on RideDog's page shows "RideDog connection was cancelled." and changes nothing.
Example
You connect RideDog, and your jet ski trackers appear in your dashboard so you can see where each one is.
Good to know
- If the card says "RideDog isn't fully configured yet", the connection is not set up on Renta's side. Contact team@rentalabs.io.
- Connecting needs permission to manage integrations (Owners and Managers).
