Ready to make your code electric?
Light's API and platform lets you deliver grid electricity to a customer's home. Here you'll find all of the resources to make that happen.
Solutions
APIs
Make a bespoke experience using your own UI and our endpoints. There's two APIs available:
App API
All endpoints that just need authorization with your app, like getting a user or plan details.
Account API
Endpoints that need user auth to complete actions on their behalf, like enrolling in a plan.
Embedded flows
Add already prepared UI flows as modals to your existing user journey. Embedded flows can be launched from your web or mobile appto fulfill experiences like Enrollment or Billing.
Dashboard
Manage your apps, tokens, and more within our dashboard. Also use the dashboard to test sandbox users.
Webhooks
Avoid the need for constant polling by receiving real-time notifications about events in the Light platform.
No-code web app
On a deadline? We also have a prebuilt app that you can white-label with no-code to get started.
