Mobal supports seamless integration of EV Charging Stations via our EV APIs, built on the OCPI protocol and optimized for streamlined syncing with your Google Business Profile.
This ensures your station data is always accurate, verified, and visible on major platforms like Google Maps — without creating unclaimed or duplicate listings.
🏪 Creating EV Charging Station Profiles
When a client sends an OCPI location creation request to Mobal’s EV API, we match that request to an existing Mobal profile based on either:
The external ID
The Mobal profile ID
Each EV Charging Station must be linked to a verified Mobal profile, which in turn is connected to a verified Google Business Profile.
✅ Why This Matters
Ensures the location already exists and is verified on Google
Prevents unclaimed new locations from being auto-created on Google Maps
Aligns your Mobal profile data with your Google Business listing, reducing conflicts
We automatically annotate incoming API data with key details from the connected Mobal profile, reducing your workload and ensuring consistency.
🔄 Updating EV Charging Station Information
When sending status updates or data changes to Mobal’s EV API, we combine your request data with static fields from the associated Mobal profile.
🔄 Dynamic data you send (required):
Charging Station ID (can match the Mobal profile external ID)
EVSE information
Party ID
Timezone
Country & country code
Parking type
Name of station
Charging availability during closed hours
Whether to publish the station on maps
📍 Static data we auto-append (from the Mobal profile):
Coordinates (latitude & longitude)
Address
Profile name
Postal code
City
This ensures data quality and eliminates the need for you to repeatedly provide known information, speeding up integration.
🔐 Simplified Authentication & Real-Time Updates
Mobal's EV APIs are built on OCPI but use a streamlined authentication process to make integration easier. We also support real-time updates for:
