Get the Payoff leads for your dealership. 2. Keep the leads that were not there on the last run. 3. Email you the new leads with account and vehicle. ### Lease Maturity leads that can end early, to your CRM Starts: Every Monday at 8:00 1. For each dealership you name, get the Lease Maturity leads. 2. Keep the leads whose vehicle can end the contract early without an early end charge. 3. Post each one, with term end date and remaining payments, to your CRM webhook. ### Pending Dash access requests for the Dealer Admin Starts: Every weekday at 9:00 1. List the Registration Requests and Applications / Reports Requests waiting in Manage User. 2. Stop when there are none. 3. Email you each request with the user and what they asked for. You can run a workflow by hand on every plan, Free included. Schedules and webhook triggers come with the paid plans, from $29 a month. ## Once built, one call from your code Once you have built a [method](/product/methods), it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get payoff and maturity leads” would look like. Example request: ``` curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "method": "securedealer.ally.com/get_leads", "input": { "pdn": "04217", "lead_type": "Lease Maturity" } }' ``` Example response: ``` { "status": "completed", "data": { "dealership": "Northwind Motors", "pdn": "04217", "lead_type": "Lease Maturity", "leads": [ { "account": "****7731", "vehicle": "2023 SUV, AWD", "term_end_date": "2027-02-14", "remaining_payments": 1842.6, "can_end_early_without_charge": true } ], "count": 1 } } ``` An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request. ## Dash’s own options Ally does not publish an API for dealers' Dash data. Its developer portal shows only a sign-in and a sign-up and lists no APIs publicly. Credit applications reach Ally through RouteOne and Dealertrack, SmartCash settles obligations electronically through Dash, and leads, quotes and user access are worked in Dash by hand. | Option | What it covers | What it takes | | --- | --- | --- | | Ally Developer Portal | Not stated publicly: the portal's home page lists no APIs. | An account created through the portal's Sign up. | | RouteOne and Dealertrack | Submitting credit applications to Ally from your dealer system. | A RouteOne or Dealertrack account at your dealership. | | SmartCash | Ally's internet-based settlement system: nets mutual financial obligations daily for electronic payments. | Access through Dash, with extra setup by Ally after your Dealer Admin approves it. | | Dash by hand | Leads, Reports, Rates & Calculators and Applications such as Ally Ride Return, for your dealership and any associated ones. | A Dash username approved by your Dealer Admin, with each application and report granted. | Read on November 12, 2026: [Ally Dash Dealer Job Aid (PDF)](https://www.ally.com/content/dam/pdf/dealer/online/ally-dash-dealer-job-aid.pdf.coredownload.inline.pdf), [Ally Wholesale Inventory Financing](https://www.ally.com/dealer/auto-finance/wholesale-financing/), [Ally Developer Portal](https://partners.api.ally.com/). ## Signing in to Dash Dash signs you in with a username of exactly 8 letters and numbers and a password, and passwords do not expire. A security code sent by text or email verifies you only when you register or reset your password. With Fous you sign in once through Dash's own sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256, and an expired session is signed back in. ## Worth knowing - **Each application and report needs approval**: You may not have access to every application or report in Dash. Your Dealer Admin approves each one, and SmartAuction, SmartCash and Vehicle Protection Center need extra setup by Ally before they open. - **Unused usernames are suspended**: Dealer users are suspended after 120 days of inactivity and deactivated after two full years. A suspended user is reactivated by the Dealer Admin, a deactivated one only through an Ally Admin. - **One login, several dealerships**: A user can add associated dealerships by PDN to see their leads or reports, so a method takes the PDN as an input. At least one application must be selected for each associated dealership. - **Credit applications use RouteOne or Dealertrack**: Ally takes credit applications through RouteOne and Dealertrack integration. Dash holds the resources around them: payoff quotes, the vehicle return tool, leads, rates and calculators. ## More in Automotive: dealers - [FMCDealer](https://fous.com/automate/fmcdealer.md) - [GM GlobalConnect](https://fous.com/automate/gm-globalconnect.md) - [Honda Interactive Network](https://fous.com/automate/honda-interactive-network.md) - [Kia KDealer+](https://fous.com/automate/kia-kdealer.md) - [NNAnet](https://fous.com/automate/nnanet.md) - [Stellantis DealerCONNECT](https://fous.com/automate/stellantis-dealerconnect.md) - [Toyota Dealer Daily](https://fous.com/automate/toyota-dealer-daily.md) - [Dealertrack uniFI](https://fous.com/automate/dealertrack-unifi.md) - [RouteOne](https://fous.com/automate/routeone.md) - [VinSolutions Connect CRM](https://fous.com/automate/vinsolutions-connect-crm.md) - [Dealertrack DMS](https://fous.com/automate/dealertrack-dms.md) - [ACV Auctions](https://fous.com/automate/acv-auctions.md) - [OPENLANE](https://fous.com/automate/openlane.md) - [Copart](https://fous.com/automate/copart.md) - [IAA](https://fous.com/automate/iaa.md) - [USS CIS](https://fous.com/automate/uss-cis.md) - [vAuto Provision](https://fous.com/automate/vauto-provision.md) - [AutoScout24 Händlerbereich](https://fous.com/automate/autoscout24-handlerbereich.md) - [CarGurus Dealer Dashboard](https://fous.com/automate/cargurus-dealer-dashboard.md) - [mobile.de Händlerbereich](https://fous.com/automate/mobile-de-handlerbereich.md) - [Cars.com Dealer Center](https://fous.com/automate/cars-com-dealer-center.md) - [Auto Trader Portal](https://fous.com/automate/auto-trader-portal.md) - [AUTO1.com](https://fous.com/automate/auto1-com.md) - [Manheim](https://fous.com/automate/manheim.md) Other industries: [Indeed for Employers](/automate/indeed-for-employers), [Procore](/automate/procore), [Faire](/automate/faire), [楽天市場 RMS](/automate/rakuten-rms), [Arbor MIS](/automate/arbor-mis), [Duke Energy My Account](/automate/duke-energy-my-account). ## Frequently asked questions ### Does Ally Dash have an API? Not one Ally publishes for dealers. Ally's developer portal shows only a sign-in and a sign-up and lists no APIs publicly. Credit applications reach Ally through RouteOne and Dealertrack, and Dash itself is used in the browser. ### What lead lists does Ally Dash give dealers? Payoff and portfolio leads across the customer life cycle: Payoff, Lease Maturity, Retail Maturity, In Market, In Equity and the Dealer Retail and Lease Portfolio. Lease lead lists show when the term ends, what the lessee may owe if they end early and whether the vehicle can end early without an early end charge. ### Why can't I see an application or report in Dash? Your username has not been granted it yet. Request it under Edit Profile, Applications & Reports, and your Dealer Admin approves or rejects the request. Some applications, such as SmartAuction and SmartCash, also need setup by Ally after approval. ### How do I get Ally Ride Return? Add it in Dash under Edit Profile, Applications & Reports, or register for Dash first if you have no username. Ally Ride Return generates quotes for lease and retail accounts, grounds off-lease vehicles and buys vehicles with SmartCash. ### Is Fous affiliated with Ally Financial? No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own Ally Dash username, and a method reads and does only what that account can. Fous is an independent product: it is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the operator of Ally Dash (Ally Financial). The name is used only to say which system this page is about.
