Automate Opendock 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.

• Appointments for today and tomorrow still Requested

  Build this

  Starts

  Every weekday at 6:00 in your dispatch time zone

  Step 1

  List my appointments starting today and tomorrow.

  Step 2

  Keep the ones still in Requested status.

  Step 3

  Email you the list with warehouse, reference number, start time and load type.

• Appointment status changes, posted to your TMS

  Build this

  Starts

  Every 30 minutes

  Step 1

  List my appointments for the next 7 days.

  Step 2

  Keep the ones whose status or start time changed since the last run.

  Step 3

  Post each one with reference number, warehouse, start time, load type and status to your TMS webhook.

• Weekly missed and cancelled appointments by warehouse

  Build this

  Starts

  Every Monday at 8:00

  Step 1

  List my appointments from the past 7 days.

  Step 2

  Keep the ones in No Show or Cancelled status.

  Step 3

  Group them by warehouse and email you the summary.

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 “List my appointments” would look like.

curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "schedule.opendock.com/list_my_appointments",
    "input": {
      "from_date": "2026-11-12",
      "to_date": "2026-11-13",
      "status": "Requested"
    }
  }'

{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "appointments": [
      {
        "warehouse": "Acme Distribution Center, Columbus OH",
        "reference_number": "PO-58214",
        "start_time": "2026-11-12T14:30:00-05:00",
        "load_type": "Inbound Live Unload, 53' Dry Van",
        "status": "Requested",
        "notes": "26 pallets, floor loaded"
      },
      {
        "warehouse": "Northwind Cold Storage, Joliet IL",
        "reference_number": "NW-30917",
        "start_time": "2026-11-13T07:00:00-06:00",
        "load_type": "Inbound Drop, Reefer",
        "status": "Requested",
        "notes": ""
      }
    ]
  }
}

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.

Opendock’s own options

Loadsmart documents an Opendock REST API, and its carrier guide shows booking an appointment after signing in with the email and password of a Scheduling Portal account linked to a carrier company. The API pages name no price. An Opendock MCP is in closed beta through your account manager, and the Scheduling Portal itself is free for carriers.

Read on November 12, 2026: Opendock API: Booking Appointments (for carriers), Opendock MCP, Opendock Scheduling Portal User Guide.

Signing in to Opendock

Opendock's Scheduling Portal signs you in with your email and password at schedule.opendock.com, and on your first sign-in you link the account to your carrier company. With Fous you sign in once through Opendock'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

The warehouse decides what you can change

Reschedule and Cancel appear on an appointment only when the warehouse allows carriers to use them. A cancellation asks for a reason, and some warehouses set a notice period, such as 24 hours.

A booking can start as Requested

Some warehouses confirm each appointment themselves, so a new booking has the status Requested until they do. Appointment statuses run Requested, Scheduled, Arrived, In Progress, Completed, No Show and Cancelled.

Every warehouse has its own reference number

Each warehouse names its reference number, such as a PO, and decides whether it is required and must be unique. It also sets its own required fields, so a booking method takes them per warehouse.

ETAs only in the last 24 hours

Provide ETA works only within 24 hours of the appointment's start. If you will miss the date, Opendock's guide suggests rescheduling instead.
