The Revenova integration with DAT provides access to Load Board, Truck Postings, and Market Rate information directly in the TMS. Information from DAT is found on the Carrier Match Lightning Web Component (LWC), the Load Posting Lightning Web Component, and the RateIQ Lightning Web Component.
With the Revenova Winter ‘25 release, the DAT integration now calls their updated REST endpoints. In order to enable this functionality, contact DAT to acquire new credentials for these endpoints. Enter these credentials on the DAT 2 credentials card. Individual user passwords may be updated with the Mass Import Credentials function.

DAT Error Messages
User triggers the following error:
DAT:Message from Load Board: Error: 101000010 - Authentication failure
This error may occur when attempting to setup DAT credentials. This error is sent by DAT because the user does not have a valid Connexion license within DAT. This error is usally resolved once the license is in place.
The credentials for logging in to DAT may be different from the Load board credentials entered in the TMS.
Confirm with DAT that your organization has a Connexion license set up. If no direct DAT contact is available, email customer.solutions@dat.com.
