Controllable Unit registration - API

This guide explains how a Service Provider (SP) can register a Controllable Unit (CU) in the Flexibility Information System using the API.

The same steps apply when using the portal, but the user will be guided through forms instead of API calls.

Note

If you are looking for how to do it in the portal, check the companion guide. That guide also contains more detailed explanations of the steps and why they are needed.

Resources and endpoints

Registering a CU involves creating and updating several resources in the FIS.

In addition, controllable unit lookup must be used to confirm that the CU does not already exist and that the end user is linked to the accounting point.

Warning

CU lookup is mandatory when registering a new CU. Do not create a CU before confirming that it does not already exist.

Steps to register a CU

The following diagram shows the steps that must be taken to register a CU. Where necessary, the steps are explained in detail with notes.
