Set up your charger

API keys for your own integrations

Create an API key so your home automation or a spreadsheet can read your charging sessions from Veton.

For car owners Updated 5 September 2026

What an API key is for

An API key lets a program of yours, for example Home Assistant or a script that fills a spreadsheet, read your charging sessions and charger status from Veton. The key can only reach what you can already see on the dashboard, and a key made on this page only reads: it cannot change charger settings.

You need to own a household with at least one charger before you can create a key. Members of a household cannot.

Create a key

  1. Sign in at v2.vetoncontrol.com and open Settings, then Manage API keys in the API keys card.
  2. Click Create a key and give it a name that says where it will be used.
  3. Choose its scope: pick a household, then tick the chargers the key may read, or leave them all unticked to cover the whole household.
  4. Optionally set an expiry date and limit the key to the addresses your program connects from, under Allowed IP addresses.
  5. Click Create key. The full secret is shown once. Copy it into the program that needs it before closing the page; afterwards only the first characters remain visible.
The API keys page: a Create a key button and the top of an active key card named Home Assistant, showing which charger it reads and when it was created and expires.

Treat the secret like a password. Anyone who has it can read your charging history. If it leaks, revoke the key and create a new one.

Keep an eye on your keys

Each key shows when it was created, when it expires if you set a date, and when it was last used, from which address. If you do not recognise a use, revoke the key with the Revoke button; it stops working immediately. A key also stops working when you lose access to the chargers it covers.

Documentation

The technical reference is public and linked below; it describes every request a key can make. A quick-start with example requests is available from Veton on request.
