An API (Application Programming Interface) is a connection that allows different systems to communicate with each other. With the reev API, you can connect your charging infrastructure to other digital tools - for example for your internal billing system. Automate processes that were previously manual.

You need a Business or Enterprise licence for the reev Platform.
If you currently use a different licence, you can upgrade your subscription directly in the Platform.

Typical Use Cases for the reev API
The reev API enables direct integration of the reev Platform into existing systems, applications, or processes. It provides access to data on charging points, charging sessions, users, and energy flows.
Examples of how companies use the reev API include:
Integration into external systems and dashboards: Integrate real‑time charging data into monitoring or management tools - for example, for billing, energy, or fleet management.
Example: A partner company used the API to create a public kiosk display showing the live status of charging points. → View exampleAutomated data processing: Export charging sessions and energy consumption data for internal processing or integration into ERP and CRM systems.
Tip: The API is particularly useful for companies that want to develop their own services or visualisations based on the reev Platform.
Note: The reev API currently supports data retrieval only (read‑only).
Writing or feeding data back into the reev Platform is not yet possible.
