How it Works

Derapi provides DER software developers a single, uniform API to access devices from any supported manufacturer. Calls to Derapi’s API are translated and routed to the appropriate device partners’s API back-end. Responses from the device partner are translated into a standard format and presented to the caller. Derapi customers can address any supported device with a standard API call, and receive a uniform response, regardless of the device partner.
