Is LineNow part of Toast or xtraCHEF?

LineNow is a separate product. This page describes its Toast API connection, not a Toast-owned product or a claim of certified partner status.

What Toast access do I need?

The connection requires configured Toast Standard API credentials and restaurant, menu, and order read scopes. Confirm your account’s access and restaurant identifiers during onboarding.

Does LineNow change anything in Toast?

The connection described here is read-only. It reads menu and order data for use in LineNow. It does not change Toast menus, prices, orders, payments, or stock.

Will this eliminate ingredient counts?

No. Recipe-based usage estimates depend on mapped quantities and recorded sales. Keep physical counts and waste records so the team can check what is actually available for service.

What connects to Toast?

Toast → LineNow: menus and closed orders: Read restaurant, menu, and closed-order data through the Toast Standard API. Supported webhook activity depends on configured API access.
LineNow: ingredients and purchasing: Map menu items, sizes, and modifiers to ingredient quantities and kitchen locations. Usage remains a recipe-based estimate.
A read-only Toast connection: The connection does not write menu prices, orders, payments, or ingredient stock to Toast. Receiving and counts stay in LineNow.
