Toast POS Integration Guide
Menuboard Manager integrates with Toast for automatic Item, Description, Price updates and inventory management with the ability to hide menu items or mark as "Sold Out" from Toast.
This guide walks through the full process of connecting Menuboard Manager to your Toast POS system — from enabling the integration in Toast, to importing menu fields, to working with modifiers.
Step 1: Enable the Integration in Toast
Confirm You Have Toast Integration Access
Log in to Toast Web with an account that has Account Admin or Manage Integrations permissions.
In the left navigation, go to Integrations → Integration Management → Browse \& Purchase Integrations.
If you do not see Integration Management or Browse \& Purchase, contact your Toast account representative.
You may need the Partner Integrations subscription enabled for your locations.
Note: Having a Toast account does not automatically mean Restaurant Management Suite is enabled. The Toast RMS subscription is self-service — go to the Toast Shop and search for Restaurant Management Suite.
Add Menuboard Manager in Toast
In Toast Web, go to Integrations → Integration Management → Browse \& Purchase Integrations and search for "Menuboard Manager."
Click the Menuboard Manager tile.
Click the button to add the integration. The label may be Add Now, Learn More, or Sign Up depending on your Toast configuration.
If you have multiple locations, use the location selection screen to choose which stores will connect to Menuboard Manager, then click Apply.
Confirm on the final screen. Toast will now grant Menuboard Manager API access to those locations.
Step 2: Connect Your Location in Menuboard Manager
Log in to Menuboard Manager.
Open the Locations app from the nine-dot menu.
Navigate to the location you want to connect.
Enable POS Integration.
Paste your Toast Restaurant ID into the field.
Click Save.
Step 3: Import Toast Fields into a Presentation
Log in to Menuboard Manager and open a presentation.
Go to the Fields tab.
Click the Toast Fields button (orange button).
Select the Toast menu from the drop-down.
Select the Toast menu items you want to import.
Click Import. The Toast fields are added to the presentation.
Tip: Use Sections to group fields and drag them into position on the preview canvas. See the Field Sections article for more.
Working with Modifiers
Finding Modifier GUIDs
Log in to the Toast portal.
Go to Menus → Bulk Management → Items Database → Modifiers.
Select Show/Hide Columns and enable GUIDs.
Using Multiple Menus
If the same modifiers appear on more than one menu in Toast, you must append the menu GUID to the string you enter in Menuboard Manager's POS ID fields.
Log in to the Toast portal.
Go to Menus → Bulk Management → Menus to find the menu GUID.
Append the menu GUID to the modifier GUID as shown below.
Example:
052f9330-10d1-43c1-80f4-63bd2c57337c>menu=44e27708-aa95-4efa-b793-98cd6c91caf9
Appending a Size
If you use sizes (for example, for drinks), append the size to the modifier GUID.
Example:
052f9330-10d1-43c1-80f4-63bd2c57337c>size=16oz
