Robert, The links Michael provided below are the best from OVMS side. Each vehicle manufacturer has their own standard, and most are closed (only opened by reverse engineering, and at the whim of the manufacturers who could shut it down whenever they like). Regards, Mark.

Hi Robert,
you can connect to an OVMS server through the client protocol (TCP) or via HTTP.
See - https://github.com/openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System/blob/master/d... <https://github.com/openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System/blob/master/docs/OVMS_Protocol.pdf> and the perl clients for details and examples. The protocol supports telemetry, command execution, push notifications and more.
The HTTP API lacks documentation, it supports telemetry up to now and it's been described here: - http://lists.teslaclub.hk/pipermail/ovmsdev/2013-February/000919.html <http://lists.teslaclub.hk/pipermail/ovmsdev/2013-February/000919.html> - http://lists.teslaclub.hk/pipermail/ovmsdev/2013-March/000958.html <http://lists.teslaclub.hk/pipermail/ovmsdev/2013-March/000958.html>
...and there's a simple JS client implementation over here: - http://www.openvehicles.com/simpleclient.htm <http://www.openvehicles.com/simpleclient.htm>
To my knowledge there is no cooperation with any car manufacturer. I would be surprised if car manufacturers actually show interest in supporting unified or open APIs.
Regards, Michael

Hi,
As always, after sending the email found some of what was required turned up.
But I am still looking for the OVMS server API specification.
For your information General APIs - https://developer.ibm.com/apimanagement/2014/10/31/whats-driving-apis-automo... <https://developer.ibm.com/apimanagement/2014/10/31/whats-driving-apis-automotive> Tesla - http://docs.timdorr.apiary.io <http://docs.timdorr.apiary.io/> Nissan CarWings - www.npmjs.com/package/carwingsjs <http://www.npmjs.com/package/carwingsjs> GM - https://developer.gm.com/documentation <https://developer.gm.com/documentation> BMW i3 - https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2015/11/reverse-engineering-the-bmw-i3-api <https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2015/11/reverse-engineering-the-bmw-i3-api> Because we need to access multiple car types, my vision is to find/develop a unified open API. Is OVMS working with anyone along this line?
Look forward to hearing any plans. Regards, Robert Sharpe (Managing Director) 07711 252971

I am working on an EV route planning and navigation system that will need real time remote access to vehicle data.
The most powerful approach would be to access all the different supported vehicles through a standard cloud base open api. My initial Googling has not shown an existing API but I know OVMS has a server.
Can anyone tell me the location of a OVMS API definition? any other standard APIs (similar to Open Charge Point Protocol but for cars) Thanks in advance. Regards, Robert Sharpe (Managing Director) 07711 252971
