Sync Oomnitza with Verizon to retrieve and manage firmware asset and software data in Oomnitza.

Before you start

To easily find the records that are uploaded to Oomnitza, it's best practice to create a dedicated user account for each integration. This will make it easier for you to retrieve the records that are uploaded to Oomnitza from the vendor application.
