Path Parameters

deviceId

string

required

The unique identifier for the EV Charger device.

Example:

"device_abc123"

Body

application/json

Sparse map of writable settings. At least one field is required. Each value uses the canonical { value, unit } shape; unit must match the canonical setting.

Sparse map of writable settings. At least one field is required. Unknown or read-only keys are rejected with UNSUPPORTED_SETTING.

max_charge_rate

Quantity · object

Maximum charging power the charger will draw. (unit: kw, min: 0, max: 50)

Show child attributes

Response

Settings written. Response lists the canonical setting keys that changed.

success

boolean

required

Always true for success responses.

data

Ev Charger Settings Update · object

required

Acknowledgement of a settings write. updated lists the canonical setting keys that changed; OEMs that fire-and-forget will still echo the keys.

Show child attributes

meta

Response Meta · object

required

Metadata attached to every response: the request identifier, the serving environment, the build timestamp, and the server-side latency.

Get this EV charger's scheduleRead the schedule configured on this EV charger. A schedule is device config, so it is read on the device, the same surface that carries `settings`. The cross-device list lives at `GET /schedules`. The route is published ahead of the scheduler; every call returns 501 until it lands.
