Automate MOVE with a workflow

A workflow 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.

• Certificates and surveys coming due, whole fleet

  Build this

  Starts

  Every Monday at 7:00

  Step 1

  Get fleet status from My Fleet for every ship.

  Step 2

  Keep the ships with a survey due or a certificate expiring in the next 90 days.

  Step 3

  Email you the list, one section per ship, with due dates and open conditions of class.

• Survey request status changes, posted to your system

  Build this

  Starts

  Every weekday at 8:00

  Step 1

  Check the survey, audit and class attestation requests for the fleet.

  Step 2

  Keep the requests whose status changed since the last run.

  Step 3

  Post each one, with ship, survey or audit, date, port and status, to your webhook.

• New certificates and documents, logged in your fleet system

  Build this

  Starts

  Every day at 18:00

  Step 1

  For each ship you name, list its certificates and documents.

  Step 2

  Keep the ones that were not there on the last run.

  Step 3

  Post title, category, issue date and expiry date to your fleet management system's webhook.

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, it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get fleet status” would look like.

curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "move.bureauveritas.com/get_fleet_status",
    "input": {
      "ships": [
        "Acme Horizon",
        "Northwind Spirit"
      ]
    }
  }'

{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "ships": [
      {
        "ship_name": "Acme Horizon",
        "ship_type": "Bulk carrier",
        "status": "Attention required",
        "next_survey": "Annual survey (hull and machinery)",
        "due_date": "2026-12-04",
        "certificates_expiring": [
          {
            "title": "International Load Line Certificate",
            "expiry_date": "2027-01-15"
          }
        ],
        "open_conditions_of_class": 1
      }
    ],
    "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.

MOVE’s own options

Bureau Veritas's MOVE pages describe no public API. For automation it offers Connect Your Systems, which exchanges data with Bureau Veritas platforms, including ship status, certificates and survey reports for your fleet management system; access and conditions are not published. Otherwise you use Fleet in service on the web or in the mobile app, with notifications for upcoming surveys and certificate expirations.

Signing in to MOVE

Bureau Veritas's pages show a Veristar Login with Sign in and Register for MOVE, and do not describe the sign-in steps further. With Fous you sign in once through MOVE's own sign-in with your own account. The login is sealed with AES-256 and never returned by the API or written to logs, and code and AI agents never see it.

Worth knowing

Your administrator decides what you see

Authorized administrators choose who in the organization sees which fleet data, and grant or remove access without asking Bureau Veritas. A method reads only the ships your account has been given.

Recommendations are now Conditions of Class

Since September 2020 the app says Condition of Class (CoC) where it used to say Recommendation. Use that name when you describe a method that reads them.

Statutory e-certificates depend on the flag

Bureau Veritas issues statutory certificates electronically only when the flag administration accepts them, from the vessel's next survey. Each can be checked through a QR code, a URL or a unique identification number.

Survey dates are suggested, then confirmed

Optimum Survey Planning suggests survey dates from the ship's status and recommends ports from distance, stop duration and surveyor availability. You confirm the request online and get email updates.
