Handle your clients accounts with these API end points.

Each client will get an unique ID. If you work with your own client IDs, please note the following:

• Internally, each ID is preceded by a prefix.
• Your client ID MUST NOT have more than 20 characters.
• All Responses that contain an ID are shown with this prefix.
• If you make requests that require an ID, you can use either
  • your own ID (without prefix) or
  • our internal ID (with prefix)

Base URI:

https://api.forecast.solar/:apikey/payperuse

:apikey : Your administrative API key

The response format can be controlled with the Accept header, as described in the documentation.

If the response status code is 404, the API key is probably incorrect.
