  title: char.gy Open Charge Point Data Tariffs API
  version: '2026-07-27'
  summary: char.gy's statutory open data feed — an unauthenticated, OCPI-shaped Locations and Tariffs surface published to satisfy Part 4 regulation 10 of the UK Public Charge Point Regulations 2023.
  description: 'char.gy publishes no OpenAPI of its own; its entire published documentation for this API is a single Freshdesk help-centre article naming the host and two paths. This description was GENERATED by API Evangelist from live, anonymous HTTP probes of the two published endpoints on 2026-07-27 — every path, query parameter, response header, status code and schema field below was observed in a real response, and nothing here was inferred from the OCPI specification alone.


    Observed behaviour: both endpoints answer HTTP 200 with `application/json` to a request carrying no credential, no cookie and no referer. Responses use the OCPI envelope `{data, status_code, status_message, timestamp}` with `status_code: 1000` on success. Pagination is limit/offset via query string, surfaced with `x-total-count`, `x-limit` and an RFC 5988 `Link` header carrying `rel="next"`. `date_from` and `date_to` filters are implemented and were verified to change `x-total-count` (5409 unfiltered, 2396 for `date_from=2026-07-27T00:00:00Z`, 6 for `date_to=2026-07-01T00:00:00Z`, 0 for `date_from=2027-01-01T00:00:00Z`). Bad parameter values return HTTP 200 with an OCPI client error envelope (`status_code: 2001`), not a 4xx. Only GET and HEAD are routed; OPTIONS and POST return 404. There is no `/open-ocpi/versions` endpoint (404), so no OCPI version is declared, and the sessions, cdrs, tokens, commands and credentials modules are all 404 under `/open-ocpi` — only the two modules the regulation compels are open.


    Enumerations below are constrained to values actually observed across a 250-location sample spanning offsets 0, 1000, 2500, 4000 and 5350; where the observed value diverges from the OCPI 2.2.1 standard (notably EVSE `status` values `WORKING` and `FAULTED`, which are not in the OCPI EVSEStatus enumeration and appear to encode the regulator''s "working" vocabulary from regulation 10(6)(a)) the observed value is recorded, not corrected.'
