FousTQL Carrier Dashboard

Turn TQL Carrier Dashboard into an API

Search TQL's load board, read your My Loads list and check payment history for completed loads with one API call each. Or have a workflow search your lanes before dispatch each morning and email you the loads that were not there on the last search.

Works with your own TQL Carrier Dashboard account. Fous is an independent product.

Automate TQL Carrier Dashboard 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.

  • New loads on your lanes before dispatch

    Build this

    Every weekday at 6:00
    Step 1
    For each lane you name, search the load board for today's pick-ups.
    Step 2
    Keep the loads that were not there on the last run.
    Step 3
    Email you the list, one section per lane, with rate and Book It Now where offered.
  • Delivered loads with no TQL payment yet

    Step 3

  • TQL payments, posted to your accounting system

    Build this

    Get the payment history for completed loads.
    Step 2

    Step 3
    Post PO number, amount and payment date to your accounting 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 “Search the load board” 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": "carrierdashboard.tql.com/search_load_board",
    "input": {
      "pickup": "Columbus, OH",
      "radius_miles": 75,
      "drop": "Atlanta, GA",
      "pickup_date": "2026-11-13",
      "trailer_type": "Van"
    }
  }'
Example response
{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "loads": [
      {
        "pickup": "Groveport, OH",
        "drop": "McDonough, GA",
        "pickup_date": "2026-11-13",
        "trailer_type": "Van",
        "rate": 1450,
        "currency": "USD",
        "book_it_now": true
      }
    ],
    "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.

Signing in to TQL Carrier Dashboard

You get a TQL Carrier Dashboard login by completing TQL's carrier packet through Highway and then choosing Request a Login; TQL approves it in about 48 hours. With Fous you sign in once through TQL Carrier Dashboard'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.

Worth knowing

Only Final Payment Paperwork starts payment
Documents uploaded under other categories, such as Lumper Receipt or BOL for Fuel Advance, go only to the broker and are not used for payment processing.
Factored loads go to your factoring company
If you factor, TQL asks you to send all load documents to your factoring company, not to TQL.
Tax details are on the website only
TQL does not send 1099 forms. The yearly breakdown is under the Reporting tab of the website, not the app, and exports as a PDF.
Some equipment types are app only
TQL says box trucks, Sprinter vans and hotshots are available only in the app. To find more loads, TQL suggests leaving drop blank or widening the radius.
