Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your auth token.

Body

application/json

Unknown fields inside the type data object are rejected, and so is a type data object for another type. Unknown top-level fields are ignored. null on an optional field means the same as leaving it out.

household

string

required

The Nomos ID of the household the asset belongs to.

Example:

"dom_k3v9x2m7n1b4v8c2x6z0q5wd"

external_id

string

required

Your own ID for the device, unique among all assets of your organization and never reused. If an asset with this external_id exists, you get 409 with its ID, so a retry after a timeout is safe.

Minimum string length: 1

Example:

"partner-bat-1"

type

enum<string>

required

You add inverter, solar, battery, wallbox and heat_pump. Nomos creates household_net and household_residual with a household's first asset.

Available options:

household_net,

household_residual,

inverter,

solar,

battery,

wallbox,

heat_pump

Example:

"battery"

is_steerable

boolean

required

Nomos expects a schedule for this asset before each day of operation.

Example:

true

parent_inverter

string | null

The Nomos ID of the active inverter in the same household that the asset sits behind. Required on solar, optional on battery (a battery without it is AC-coupled), not allowed on other types.

Example:

"ha_i9k3l7w2e5r8t1y4u6o0p3as"

manufacturer

string | null

Example:

"Fronius"

model

string | null

Example:

"BYD Battery-Box Premium HVS 10.2"

installed_at

string<date-time> | null

Example:

"2025-04-02T00:00:00Z"

metadata

object | null

Your own free-form data, at most 10KB, for example the serial number.

Show child attributes

Example:

{ "serial_number": "34118573" }

Example:

"ha_i9k3l7w2e5r8t1y4u6o0p3as"

external_id

string | null

required

Your own ID. Null on household_net and household_residual.

Example:

"partner-bat-1"
