Climkit API

Nicolas Vodoz Updated by Nicolas Vodoz

The Climkit Developer API allows registered and authorized developers to retrieve metering and energy data from authorized Climkit sites.

To register, developers must obtain data access rights from the facility owner and Climkit SA.

API access requests should be sent to service@climkit.io.

API access credentials are different from the personal account login credentials for the Climkit portal.

Access credentials may only be used by the registered developer. Colleagues and collaborators must submit an individual request to obtain their own access rights.

API Endpoint: https://api.climkit.io/api/v1

1. Authentication

The Climkit API uses JSON Web Tokens (https://jwt.io/introduction/) to secure information transit.

Once the user is logged in with their credentials (username and password), they receive a token valid for 15 minutes, which grants access to authorized resources.

URL: /auth

Method: POST

Auth required: NO

Authentication through username-password to get an access token

Parameters (POST)
----------
username: str
    The API username
password: str
    The API password

Returns
-------
    {
        'access_token': <str: your-access-token>,
