We’re thrilled to announce early access to the **all-new Method Dashboard**, purposefully redesigned to harness the full potential of our API’s V2 capabilities.

This intuitive interface is crafted to empower both technical and non-technical team members with:

* Role-based access control
* Advanced data visualization
* Custom reporting capabilities
* Universal search functionality
* Self-service team management
* Key rotation tools
* SSO and Passkey authentication

Everyone across your team can now use the new Method Dashboard:

* **CX** – monitor and troubleshoot any issues associated with end-user data.
* **Engineering** – create API keys and monitor webhooks.
* **Finance** – view high-level metrics to better understand billing.

**How to access?**
Dashboard v2 is available for all teams, including existing ones, ensuring a seamless transition to the new interface.

### Vehicles API

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/methodfinancial/zaEy2Zf5mLkHDuX_/images/vehicles-api.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=zaEy2Zf5mLkHDuX_&q=85&s=b1d6ff9f78362f92e4fd91a3cc7f7d39" alt="title" width="3840" height="1880" data-path="images/vehicles-api.png" />

The [Vehicles API](https://docs.methodfi.com/reference/entities/vehicles/overview) enables your application to access detailed vehicle information with minimal PII. This data can help you unlock valuable insights and drive better decision-making.

**Key Use Cases**

* **Increase conversion** with pre-filled vehicle details by optimizing loan repayment terms using the vehicle's depreciation curve.
* **Enhance credit risk underwriting** by leveraging vehicle ownership details.
* **Enable personalized financial management** by correlating vehicle data with user behavior insights.

For example, you can retrieve data such as the vehicle's `VIN`, `year`, `make`, `model`, `color`, and `style`.

The Vehicles API is now available to all teams on Method’s V2 API (version: 2024-04-04). Contact your Method CSM to get access!
