## Automate Toast Web with a workflow

A [workflow](/product/workflows) 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.

### Yesterday's sales summary, sent to accounting

Starts: Every day at 6:00

1. For each location you name, get the sales summary for yesterday.
2. Keep gross sales, discounts, refunds, net sales, tips and each payment type's amount.
3. Post one record per location to your accounting system's webhook.

### Missed clock-outs, before payroll

Starts: Every weekday at 8:00

1. For each location, find yesterday's time entries with no time out or an automatic clock-out.
2. Stop when there are none.
3. Email you the list, one section per location, so a manager can correct them.

### Pending card batches and fees, every week

Starts: Every Monday at 9:00

1. For each location, get the deposit totals for the last seven days.
2. Keep the batches that are still pending and the processing fees by card provider.
3. Email you the pending batches and the week's fees, one section per location.

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 the sales summary” 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.toasttab.com/get_sales_summary",
    "input": {
      "location": "Acme Kitchen, Main St",
      "start_date": "2026-11-10",
      "end_date": "2026-11-10"
    }
  }'
```

Example response:

```
{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "location": "Acme Kitchen, Main St",
    "date": "2026-11-10",
    "gross_sales": 8412.5,
    "discounts": 186,
    "refunds": 42.75,
    "net_sales": 8183.75,
    "tips": 1297.4,
    "currency": "USD",
    "payments": [
      {
        "type": "Credit",
        "count": 214,
        "amount": 7290,
        "tips": 1241.9,
        "gratuity": 118,
        "refunds": 42.75,
        "total": 8607.15
      }
    ]
  }
}
```

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.

## Toast Web’s own options

Toast offers standard API access: read-only credentials for Toast's APIs, limited to the locations you choose. US customers get it with Restaurant Management Suite Essentials or higher, and international and MSA customers pay for it as a separate API subscription. Write access or a custom integration is arranged through your Toast account representative.

| Option | What it covers | What it takes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Standard API access | GET requests to Toast's APIs for the locations in your credentials. Menus v2 only, and guest data only for Takeout and Delivery orders. | RMS Essentials or higher for each location in the US, a separate subscription elsewhere, and the Manage Integrations permission. |
| Write access or a custom integration | Anything beyond read-only access, such as writing data back to Toast. | Arranged through your Toast account representative, or through Customer Support if you have none. |
| Toast Web by hand | The Sales summary, Deposit totals overview and Time entry management, read on screen. The Sales summary exports to CSV or XLS, or goes out by email. | A Toast Web login whose role can see each report. |

## Signing in to Toast Web

You sign in to Toast Web with your own Toast account, and the reports you see depend on your role and its permissions. With Fous you sign in once through Toast's own sign-in: the login is sealed with AES-256, never returned by the API or written to logs, and code and AI agents never see it. A method reads and does only what your account can.

## Worth knowing

- **Standard API access only reads**: It supports GET requests only: a POST returns 403. Menus are read through the v2 endpoints, and guest data comes only with Takeout and Delivery orders, not in-store orders.
- **Sales count when the check opens**: The Sales summary records a sale when a check is first opened, not when it is paid. A check opened before midnight counts on that day.
- **Payroll export waits for shift review**: The Payroll export includes only completed shift reviews, not live data. Employees Toast clocked out automatically show a 4:00 a.m. time out in Time entry management.
- **Credentials need Manage Integrations**: Creating standard API access credentials takes the Manage Integrations permission at each location they cover. A management group can have up to 100 sets of credentials.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Toast Web have an API?

Yes, read-only. Toast's standard API access gives credentials that make GET requests for the locations you choose. US customers get it with Restaurant Management Suite Essentials or higher, and international and MSA customers pay a separate API subscription. Write access is arranged through your Toast account representative.

### Can I change menus or prices through standard API access?

No. Standard API access supports GET requests only, and a POST returns 403. For write permissions or a custom integration, Toast asks you to go through your account representative or Customer Support.

### How do I export the Sales summary?

Email it or download it as CSV or XLS from Reports > Sales > Sales summary. Exports follow your filters, not your card layout, and Toast lists no date range limit for this report.

### Why is a shift missing from the Payroll export?

Because the Payroll export includes only completed shift reviews, not live data, so a shift whose review is not complete is left out. In Time entry management, an employee Toast clocked out automatically shows a 4:00 a.m. time out.

### Is Fous affiliated with Toast?

No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own Toast Web account, and a method reads and does only what that account can.
