    4. In the same tab, make sure the API Tracking Identifier is set to None (1).

      Autotask API Tracking Identifier

      Automaker is using the 1.5 version of the Autotask API at this moment. We are preparing to upgrade to v1.6 soon but until then no tracking identifier should be set.

    5. Click Save button button to create your integrator account.

    You can now use the credentials of this integrator account to connect Automaker to Autotask via the Connect form.
