Getting Started
Client credentials
The first step to accessing the Pelm API is obtaining your client credentials. Request credentials by visiting pelm.com/schedule or emailing [email protected].
Pelm-Client-Id
and Pelm-Secret
will be essential for making requests to Pelm. Please keep these secret and in a safe place.Make your first request
Let’s do a quick sanity check to make sure your credentials are working properly. In the form below, input your credentials in the Header fields and input any value (e.g. 123
) in the user_id
field. Then click “Send Request”.
If you get a response that looks similar to this, then you’re good to go.
{
"connect_token": "<CONNECT_TOKEN>",
"expires_in": 1800
}
Utility Credentials
In order to test the API, you’ll need access to a set of valid credentials for one of our supported utilities. Alternatively, you can use the Sandbox User.
