How to View Location in Dash and the Relay Pro App

Objective

  1. To view the location of a user in Relay Dash or the Relay Pro App

Environment / Applies To

  1. Relay Dash
  2. Relay Pro App
  3. Accounts with Relay Essentials, Pro, or Enterprise plans with indoor location

Procedure

Please Note:
  1. Location information can only be viewed if location tracking has been enabled in Dash. For information on how to enable location history, reference this article.
  2. The Relay Pro Plan allows account admins and virtual users to see location information of their Relay Devices, if enabled, using the built in GPS tracking functionality. When outdoors, accuracy is within 3-5 meters, and when indoors accuracy is degraded to 20-30 meters.
  3. Additionally, the Relay Pro Plan with Indoor Location service allows account admins and virtual users to see both outdoor GPS location, as well as indoor location by utilizing location beacons. Indoor location accuracy is dependent on the configuration and installation of location beacons, but provides room-level accuracy when configured correctly.
