Automate Scintilla 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.

• Start your saved reports when new data is in

  Build this

  Starts

  Every weekday at 6:00

  Step 1

  Check when the Store Sales & Inventory dataset was last refreshed.

  Step 2

  Stop when the refresh time has not changed since the last run.

  Step 3

  Run each saved report you name with the last Walmart week as its time filter.

  Step 4

  Email you the report names and the time each one started.

• Stores with nothing on hand, by item

  Build this

  Starts

  Every weekday at 9:00

  Step 1

  Read the finished Store Sales & Inventory report you name.

  Step 2

  Keep the store and item rows with zero units on hand.

  Step 3

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

  Step 4

  Email you the list grouped by item, with store number and units sold.

• Weekly store demand forecast, posted to your planning system

  Build this

  Starts

  Every Monday at 10:00

  Step 1

  Read the finished Store Demand Forecast report you name.

  Step 2

  Keep the store and item rows whose forecast changed since the last run.

  Step 3

  Post them to your planning 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 store sales and inventory rows” would look like.

curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "scintilla.com/get_store_sales_inventory",
    "input": {
      "report_name": "Store sales last Walmart week",
      "item_numbers": [
        "551203448"
      ]
    }
  }'

{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "report_name": "Store sales last Walmart week",
    "data_refreshed_at": "2026-11-12T05:40:00-06:00",
    "rows": [

        "units_sold": 38,
        "store_sales": 189.62,
        "units_on_hand": 0
      }
    ],
    "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.

Scintilla’s own options

Walmart Data Ventures documents a Data Feed API and Cloud Feeds for Scintilla data on its developer portal. API access and data feeds come with Scintilla Charter, the paid subscription, whose price is not published. Scintilla Basic is free for Walmart suppliers: reports are built and downloaded by hand in Report Builder, with no API, data feeds or report sharing.

Signing in to Scintilla

Scintilla's sign-in sends you to Walmart's account sign-in, and your Retail Link login is the single sign-on for Scintilla and Supplier One. Routine sign-ins ask for a verification code, and too many failed attempts lock the account until the Help Desk opens it again. With Fous you sign in through that same sign-in with your own account, and the login is sealed with AES-256.

Worth knowing

Reports run in the background

After Create Report, a Scintilla report takes about 20 to 70 minutes to process, and Basic emails you when it is done. So a method reads a finished report, and a workflow starts reports well before it reads them.

Every report needs a Walmart time filter

Create Report stays inactive until you set the required Walmart time filter: Date, Week, Month, Quarter or Year. Save a report you run often, so a method can run it again by name.

Some datasets are Charter only

Hourly Store Inventory, Purchase Order, Omni Sales and OMNI OTIF appear in the Walmart datasets only for Charter subscribers. A method can read only the datasets your own account shows.
