Customer Access - Ascent Global Logistics

Customer Access

Some PEAK Connect resources, for example, the Quote resource for obtaining carrier rates, require an Ascent assigned customer number as part of the inputs. The Customer Access resource allows you to retrieve the set of customer numbers that your PEAK Connect account is allowed to access. This is an HTTP POST resource
