Update many Geotab device contracts in one confirmed step
For Geotab operations teams who maintain groups, promo codes, comments and contacts across many devices.

Connector
Connect Geotab MyAdmin, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
One missed switch blanks a field on every device
Updating a group, promo code, comment or contact on many Geotab contracts is a form of paired switches, where each value applies only when its flag is on. Miss a flag and nothing changes, set an extra one and a field is blanked on every device.
Without PopdockAI
- Look up each serial's contract first
- Set each value and its matching update flag
- Hope no extra flag is switched on
- Find blanked fields on the next bill
With PopdockAI
- Each contract is read, skipping missing and terminated devices
- Your change maps to exactly the fields it needs
- Old and new values are shown before anything is saved
- One update after you confirm, with a contract read back
The prompt
Use this prompt
Copy it into any AI tool connected to PopdockAI. Swap the values in braces for your own.
**Objective:** Apply {changes} to the contracts of device(s) {device-serials}. These tools change live MyAdmin data. Never call a write tool before the user has explicitly confirmed the exact values in this conversation.
**Step 1: Current state**
For each serial, call `geotab-myadmin-get-device-contract` with device-serial = the serial. Skip any not found or terminated.
**Step 2: Map the change**
Translate {changes} into the update tool's fields. Each field only applies when its flag is true:
* group: group-id + update-group-id = true
* promo code: promo-code + update-promo-code = true
* comments: comments + update-comments = true
* contact: user-contact-id + update-user-contact = true
* Active Tracking: active-tracking-disallowed + update-active-tracking = true
Leave every other update flag false. If {changes} cannot be mapped, ask.
**Step 3: Confirm**
Show the serials and each field with its old value (where the contract list shows it) and new value. Ask the user to confirm.
**Step 4: Update, once**
Call `geotab-myadmin-update-device-contracts` with serial-nos as a JSON array and the mapped fields.
**Step 5: Verify**
Call `geotab-myadmin-get-device-contract` for the first serial and report what changed.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* One write call for all serials.
**Validation:**
* If no serial survives Step 1, stop without writing.Who it's for
One answer, three teams that use it
Fleet administrators
Update many contracts in one go
Change a group or comment across a list of devices in one confirmed step instead of editing each contract.
Add the comment Northwind depot to Geotab devices G9D1E2F3A4B5 and G9E2F3A4B5C6.
Reseller billing teams
Apply a promo code without side effects
Only the promo code field is touched, so contact and group details stay as they were.
Set promo code FLEET10 on Geotab devices G9F3A4B5C6D7, G9A4B5C6D7E8 and G9B5C6D7E8F9.
Account managers
Fix contract contacts for a customer
See the old and new contact for each device before the change goes in, so nothing surprises the customer.
Change the contact on Geotab devices G9C6D7E8F9A1 and G9D7E8F9A1B2 to Priya Shah at Contoso.
