<Steps>
  <Step title="Get your credentials">
    You’ll need a **username**, **password**, and your **customer account number**.\
    If you don’t have these details, please ask your **Account Manager**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authenticate your request">
    The **myConnectedFleet** API requires authentication for all requests.\
    \
    Authentication requirements, credential formats, and header configuration are defined in the [Authentication](/essentials/preview/authentication) section of this documentation.

    Please refer to that page for implementation details. For details on how to authenticate and obtain the required credentials, please refer to the [Authentication](/essentials/preview/authentication) page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Include your account identifier">
    Add your **customer account number** to the request URL.\
    This tells the API which account context to retrieve or modify data for.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Now make your first call!">
    Use this curl to request the latest position of your fleet.

    ```bash theme={null}
    curl --request GET \
      --url https://api.connectedfleet.michelin.com/vehicle-tracking/public/v1/customer/{customerId}/tracking/live \
      --header 'Authorization: Bearer <bearer-token>'
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Voila!">
    You made your first call.\
    The API response is JSON-encoded, see an example below;

    ```json theme={null}
    [
      {
        "assetRegistration": "TYOX-42-AK",
        "assetName": "TYOX-42-AK",
        "assetId": "2068071",
