Welcome!
Welcome to the Monta Public API!
With the popularity of EVs growing worldwide and listening to our users the Public API is here! The API is designed to help EV owners to have an easier path to build automations, dashboards, and analyze their data.
This documentation will guide you through the steps to set up your access, as well as show you how to use our APIs.
Have fun!
Getting Access
In order to obtain an access token for our endpoints, you need to provide a clientId and clientSecret. You can create them in Monta Hub: https://hub.monta.app/profile/applications
You can create as many applications with their own client credentials in Monta Hub as you want. We suggest creating a unique application for each of your consumers, e.g. one for home assistant and another one for others.
To set up the application, sign in to Monta Hub, click your user at the bottom left and select Profile. Then click Personal API keys at the top right of your profile to open Applications.
Click New, enter a name and click Create. You will be presented with your clientId and clientSecret.
Note that your clientSecret will be only visible now, make sure to store it securely (e.g. in a password manager). If you forgot your clientSecret or need to renew it, use Reset credentials on the application in the list.
The generated clientId and clientSecret will be used to authenticate with our API and obtain an accessToken. This accessToken will be used for any subsequent calls to our API. Read more about it in Authentication.
