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 the Current Day report” would look like.

Signing in to PINACLE
PINACLE signs users in with a Company User ID, an Operator ID and a password, set up by your company's two system administrators. Services that move money, such as ACH and wires, also ask for a token passcode from the PINACLE Pass app. With Fous you sign in once through PINACLE's own sign-in with your own account, and the login is sealed with AES-256.
Worth knowing
- Administrators decide what each user sees
- Two system administrators, Admin1 and Admin2, create users and assign modules and accounts. A method sees only the modules, such as Image On-Demand, that your user has been given.
- Positive Pay is decided each business day
- Check Positive Pay exceptions get a pay or return decision in PINACLE. Exceptions you do not decide that business day take your company's default decision.
- Money movement needs a second approver
- ACH and wire transactions in PINACLE need dual approval by a user other than the initiator, plus a PINACLE Pass token passcode, so reading reports is the natural place to start.
- How far back the data goes
- Previous Day history builds to two years, Special Reports are kept for two years and Image On-Demand holds up to seven years of paid check and deposit images.
