# Turn your e-OSCAR worklist into an API

> Build methods that read the ACDVs on your Data Furnisher Worklist, your Block and DR Notifications and your AUD archive from e-OSCAR, one API call each. A workflow can check the worklist each weekday and email you every ACDV close to its Response Due Date.

## What you can build on e-OSCAR

## Automate e-OSCAR with a workflow

A [workflow](/product/workflows) runs your methods as one process, with nobody at the screen. A schedule or a call from your own system starts it, the steps run in order, and the result arrives in your inbox or in the systems you already use.

### ACDVs within 5 days of their Response Due Date

Starts: Every weekday at 7:00 Eastern Time

1. Get the ACDVs on the Data Furnisher Worklist due within the next 5 days.
2. Stop when there are none.
3. Email you the list sorted by Response Due Date, with control number, dispute code and account number.

### New Block and DR Notifications, to your servicing system

Starts: Every day at 8:00 Eastern Time

1. Get the Block and DR Notifications received since yesterday.
2. Keep the notifications that were not there on the last run.
3. Post each one, with control number, type, account number and received date, to your webhook.

### Weekly AUD summary for compliance review

Starts: Every Monday at 9:00 Eastern Time

1. Read the AUD archive for the previous seven days.
2. Group the AUDs by DF Authorized Name and subscriber code, with a count for each.
3. Email you the summary with the full list below it.

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 ACDVs from the worklist” 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": "e-oscar-web.net/get_acdv_worklist",
    "input": {
      "subscriber_code": "1234567",
      "due_within_days": 5
    }
  }'
```

Example response:

```
{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "acdvs": [
      {
        "control_number": "A0000418273",
        "case_id": "CS-2026-0091842",
        "subscriber_code": "1234567",
        "account_number": "XXXXXX4821",
        "dispute_code": "001",
        "response_due_date": "2026-11-15"
      }
    ],
    "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.

## E-OSCAR’s own options

Online Data Exchange offers Services by e-OSCAR, an API that receives ACDVs, submits ACDV responses, AUDs and BRRs, and reads archives and notifications. It needs a contract, a one-time setup fee and a monthly API service fee by usage tier, and many data furnishers connect through a middleware vendor. Everyone else works in the e-OSCAR web application.

| Option | What it covers | What it takes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Services by e-OSCAR (API) | Find and view ACDV requests and images, validate and submit ACDV responses, AUDs and BRRs, archive reads, AUD, Block and DR notifications. | Contract and technical prerequisites, a one-time setup fee and a monthly API service fee based on usage tier. |
| Email notices | A daily ACDVs Received email and a DNR Notice 5 days before ACDVs reach their Response Due Date. No case detail. | Opt-in by a Registration Administrator on the Organization Management screen. |
| e-OSCAR by hand | The Data Furnisher Worklist, ACDV, AUD and BRR case screens, notifications and reports such as the AUD Archive and Operator Activity Report. | An e-OSCAR registration: a $90 registration fee and an Access Code from each consumer reporting agency. |

## Signing in to e-OSCAR

Operators sign in to the e-OSCAR web application at e-oscar-web.net. A registration can switch on single sign-on through Okta or Azure Entra ID, and it then applies to every operator on that registration. With Fous you sign in once through e-OSCAR's own sign-in with your own operator account: the login is sealed with AES-256, and an expired session is signed back in.

## Worth knowing

- **Email notices carry no case detail**: The DNR Notice arrives once a day at 1:00 a.m. ET, 5 days before ACDVs are due, with no case detail such as control numbers. e-OSCAR says each company remains responsible for accessing the system regularly.
- **Viewing an ACDV through the API changes it**: In Services by e-OSCAR, View ACDVRequest moves an ACDV from status 4 to 6 and marks its images as accessed. The archive call Get ACDVRequest reads the same ACDV without changing its status.
- **AUDs are for out-of-cycle corrections**: An AUD corrects a consumer's file between regular reporting cycles. It may not be used to add or create a record, or in place of your in-cycle Metro 2 reporting.
- **Single sign-on is set for the whole registration**: SSO covers every operator on a registration, costs a one-time $2,500 professional services fee and has no usage fees. e-OSCAR does not support SCIM provisioning.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does e-OSCAR have an API?

Yes, Services by e-OSCAR. It receives ACDVs and their images, validates and submits ACDV responses, AUDs and BRRs, and reads archives and AUD, Block and DR notifications. It takes a contract, a one-time setup fee and a monthly API service fee by usage tier, and many data furnishers use a middleware vendor.

### Can e-OSCAR tell me when ACDVs are close to their Response Due Date?

Yes, by email, since the release of December 4, 2025. A Registration Administrator can turn on the DNR Notice, sent 5 days before ACDVs are due, and a daily ACDVs Received email. Neither carries case detail such as control numbers, so you still open the worklist to see which cases they mean.

### Does e-OSCAR support single sign-on?

Yes. e-OSCAR supports Okta and Azure Entra ID, and other SAML identity providers on request. It is enabled for a whole registration after a signed SSO addendum and testing in the Stage Environment, for a one-time $2,500 fee with no usage fees.

### How does a data furnisher get access to e-OSCAR?

You register online at e-oscar-web.net and pay a $90 registration fee. Before that you need an Access Code from each consumer reporting agency you report to and your subscriber codes. e-OSCAR says to expect a response within 7 to 14 business days after payment.

### Is Fous affiliated with Online Data Exchange LLC?

No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own e-OSCAR operator account, 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 e-OSCAR (Online Data Exchange LLC). The name is used only to say which system this page is about. Something here wrong or out of date? Write to legal@fous.com.
