Configuration Variables

app_token string Required

The App Token for your account.

utc_offset string (Optional, default: 0)

Some variables (currently only the daily_cost) require that the negative number of minutes your timezone is ahead/behind UTC time.

monitored_variables list Required

Variables to monitor.

type list Required

Name of the variable.

instant_readings

Instant energy consumption.

budget

Monthly budget.

cost

The cost for energy consumption (with the tariff that has been set in Efergy) over a given period.

amount

The amount of energy consumed over a given period.

current_values

This returns the current energy usage of each device on your account. If you only have one device in your account, this is effectively the same as instant_readings.

period string (Optional, default: year)

Some variables take a period argument. Valid options are “day”, “week”, “month”, and “year”.

currency string (Optional)

This is used to display the cost/period as the unit when monitoring the cost. It should correspond to the actual currency used in your dashboard.
