How Files.com Fits With Dealertrack

A dealership on Dealertrack moves data in every direction as files. F&I contracts, registration and title data, and DMS feeds flow over SFTP between the store, Dealertrack, lenders, and the DMVs — each destination on its own schedule, each in its own layout.

Files.com is the SFTP layer around those feeds. The dealership and Dealertrack deliver files to your Files.com site; an Automation validates each one, converts the format the receiving system expects, and routes it to the right lender, DMV, or DMS folder — or collects inbound files and stages them for pickup. Every transfer is logged, every destination is scoped to its own folder, and failed transfers retry instead of stalling a deal.

What You Would Use

Managed SFTP For Dealertrack

Give Dealertrack, your lenders, and your DMS a stable, monitored SFTP endpoint with a static IP to allowlist — no server to patch and no box of your own exposed to the internet.

Route Each Feed Automatically

An Automation routes each F&I, registration, or DMS feed to the right lender, DMV, or system folder on a schedule, retries on failure, and stages inbound files for pickup — without anyone moving files by hand.

See Automations

Convert Between Formats

Convert and reshape F&I, registration, and DMS data — flat-file, CSV, XML, and JSON — into the layout each receiving system expects, and extract values to route each file, before it lands.

See Transform & Extract

Scope Every Destination

Each lender, DMV, or downstream system gets its own folder, its own credentials, and its own permissions — with a full record of every file sent or received.
