Electrify America Live Status Info
🚧 THIS IS A TICKET MIGRATED FROM UPVOTY. The original ticket and comments will be available for a limited time over at:

———————————————————————————
Yesterday I was routed to an EA station that was closed for maintenance. This was reflected in the EA app when I checked.
Please add support for live EA charger status, this is the second largest US network after Tesla!
Even if they don’t offer access to an API, would it be possible to set up a virtual machine that runs their app and cycles through all the stations every few minutes to update that way?

Hi, could this be revisited? It looks like an API is available now: https://dev.developer.electrifyamerica.com/
And several apps now integrate with it. I see Google Maps showing live info, and also some homemade ones like https://noqueuecharge.com/

Hi @samj.fain,
This is not a bug. This data is just difficult to obtain.

Understood - thank you for the prompt update. This information is available to me inside my Hyundai Ioniq 6 in the infotainment - it shows live data of available chargers including EA but I can understand if there is some politics or negotiating that needs to be done. Would appreciate this feature being added so you don't have to exit the app to go to the built in car system. App worked very well for our trip - happy new year.

We know it is one of the major networks in North America and we really really want to be able to enable live status information, but so far we simply haven’t been able to access it.
