DevicePilot
This document will explain what is needed to setup access to Device Pilot and install the connector.
API Key Setup
Go to the token settings in DevicePilot and create a new token. Select "POST" as the token type and enter an appropriate name.
Temporarily display the token by clicking "Show token" and note this down. It should start with "TOKEN".
Connector Setup
In the connector setup enter the full API Key in the API Key textbox.
Update and Insert device data
DevicePilot allows users to submit any data that is relevant to their devices. Because of this, Cyclr lets you choose your own fields that you want to submit. To choose your own field, you can create request custom fields.

DevicePilot manages webhooks, so you need to set webhooks up through the DevicePilot admin portal:
In Cyclr, add the webhook method that's present in the connector.
