Samsara: inspection & log transfer

Follow official Driver App screenshots from roadside review to transfer.

LESSON 2 / 2 · Send the Samsara inspection file

Send the Samsara inspection file

Choose DOT transfer rather than a personal reference copy.

Choose where the logs go

Wireless Web Services and E-mail to DOT send inspection data. E-mail to Myself provides a reference copy. Transfer needs an internet connection. A personal copy is not proof that DOT received the file.

From Roadside Inspection, tap Transfer and address any app notifications.
