Integrate Cars.com with Couchdrop
How it works
Automatically deliver vehicle inventory files to Cars.com using Couchdrop. Connect your cloud storage, configure the approved SFTP destination, and let Couchdrop handle scheduled file transfers.
Couchdrop sends your prepared inventory files from connected storage, such as SharePoint, Google Drive, Amazon S3, or Dropbox, to the SFTP server assigned to your Cars.com feed. Cars.com then processes the files to update your vehicle listings.
