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. ### Vehicles Ready for pick-up, every morning Starts: Every weekday at 7:00 1. Get purchased vehicles from the Purchases tab of Post-Sale Management. 2. Keep the vehicles that are Ready now and were Not Ready on the last run. 3. Email you the list by auction location, with VIN, vehicle and whether a gate pass is available. ### Titles received, posted to your dealer system Starts: Every day at 16:00 1. Get purchased vehicles and their title status from Post-Sale Management. 2. Keep the vehicles that were Title Absent on the last run and are Title Present now. 3. Post VIN, vehicle, auction location and title status to your system's webhook. ### New vehicles in your saved searches Starts: Every hour 1. For each saved search you name, run the saved search. 2. Keep the vehicles that were not there on the last run. 3. Email you the new vehicles with CR grade, MMR, location and purchase method. 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 purchased vehicles” 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": "www.manheim.com/get_purchased_vehicles", "input": { "purchased_since": "2026-11-02" } }' ``` Example response: ``` { "status": "completed", "data": { "purchases": [ { "vin": "1FTEW1EP5MKE00000", "year": 2021, "make": "Ford", "model": "F-150 XLT", "auction_location": "Manheim Northwind", "sale_date": "2026-11-10", "pickup_status": "Ready", "title_status": "Title Present", "inspection_status": "Ready", "gate_pass_available": 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. ## Manheim’s own options Manheim's APIs are requested product by product through the Cox Automotive API Storefront. Buyer APIs include Listings Search, Condition Reports and the Manheim Integrated Purchases Service, which shows your purchases for the past 13 months; seller APIs cover units, consignments and offerings.

With Fous you sign in once through Manheim's own sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256, code and AI agents never see it, and an expired session is signed back in. ## Worth knowing - **Ready waits on inspections and payment**: A vehicle with a requested Post Sale Inspection that is not complete is not shown as Ready, and payment is sometimes required first. You need the vehicle release from the Ready button to pick it up. - **Two title statuses**: Purchased vehicles show Title Present or Title Absent, and Title Absent vehicles may be delayed. A Blue Light in a live sale means the title was not present at sale time. - **Vehicle and fees can be separate invoices**: What I owe Manheim lists invoices you select one by one, and you may pay for a vehicle separately from its PSI fee. At Make Payment you can choose to wait until all holds are clear. - **Proxy bids answer competing bids**: Manheim.com bids up to your proxy amount only after a competing bid, never straight to your maximum. ## 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) - [Ally Dash](https://fous.com/automate/ally-dash.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) Other industries: [Indeed for Employers](/automate/indeed-for-employers), [Procore](/automate/procore), [MWI Animal Health](/automate/mwi-animal-health), [千牛卖家中心](/automate/qianniu-seller-center), [FSA Partner Connect](/automate/fsa-partner-connect), [Cemig Atende](/automate/cemig-atende). ## Frequently asked questions ### Does Manheim have an API? Yes, by request. Cox Automotive's API Storefront lists Manheim APIs such as Listings Search, Condition Reports and the Manheim Integrated Purchases Service, and access is requested product by product. Without one, you have Manheim.com, saved search emails and the Workbook's spreadsheet export. ### How do I know when a purchased vehicle is ready for pick-up? Check the Purchases tab of Post-Sale Management, where each vehicle shows Ready or Not Ready. Ready opens the vehicle release you need for pick-up. A workflow can read that tab each morning and email you the vehicles that turned Ready. ### How can I track titles for vehicles I bought? Post-Sale Management shows Title Present or Title Absent for each purchased vehicle. A workflow can compare the status with the last run and post the vehicles whose title arrived to your own system by webhook. ### Can I get my saved search results somewhere other than email? Manheim emails saved search results at the frequency you choose. With Fous, a method you build runs the saved search and returns each vehicle as JSON, so a workflow can keep only new vehicles and post them to your own system by webhook. ### Is Fous affiliated with Cox Automotive? No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own Manheim.com 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 Manheim (Cox Automotive). The name is used only to say which system this page is about.
