Powerly’s EV Charging API is available through RapidAPI’s marketplace. This allows developers to discover, test, and integrate the API using a unified platform alongside other APIs.
Using Powerly via RapidAPI is ideal for teams already managing multiple APIs or looking to integrate without setting up direct authentication and onboarding flows.
Key Benefits #
- Use RapidAPI’s interface to explore and test Powerly’s endpoints
- Gain access to a full suite of capabilities, including fleet controls, charger sessions, and peer-to-peer features
- Skip standalone authentication, RapidAPI handles key management
- Generate language-specific code snippets directly through RapidAPI’s UI
How to Get Started #
- Visit the Powerly listing on RapidAPI: Powerly EV Charging API – OCPP, OCPI, Fleet, and P2P rapidapi link.
- Sign in or create a RapidAPI account.
- Subscribe to the Powerly API—choose a pricing plan that fits your needs.
- Explore available endpoints via RapidAPI’s Endpoints tab.
- Test calls directly in the browser and generate code snippets for your preferred development environment.
Authentication #
RapidAPI will handle authentication and automatically insert the required API key into each request. For standalone production use, you would then switch to using your native API key from Powerly via the dashboard developer page.
Example Use Cases #
- Rapidly prototype EV charging features using tools like Bubble, Retool, or Postman
- Aggregate charging session data into dashboards or internal tools
- Use Powerly endpoints as part of broader automation or integration flows that already run on RapidAPI
Best Practices #
- Use the built-in testing environment in RapidAPI to validate API requests before deploying
- Monitor usage, quotas, and latency metrics via RapidAPI’s analytics dashboard
- Once development is ready, transition to direct API integration using your Powerly API key for production deployments
