Automate vAuto Inventory File Transfers
vAuto exchanges inventory, pricing, and appraisal data as files over FTP and SFTP between the dealership, vAuto, and downstream systems. Files.com is the managed SFTP layer that moves, converts, and audits every one of those feeds.
How Files.com Fits With vAuto
vAuto runs on file feeds in both directions. Inventory and appraisal data flow from the dealership’s systems into vAuto, pricing and merchandising data flow back out to listing and DMS systems, and each feed moves over FTP or SFTP on its own schedule and in its own layout.
Files.com is the SFTP layer around those feeds. vAuto and the dealership’s systems deliver to your Files.com site; an Automation validates each file, converts the format the receiving system expects, and routes it to the right folder — or collects inbound data and stages it for vAuto to retrieve. Every transfer is logged, every system is scoped to its own folder, and failed transfers retry instead of stalling a pricing update.
