UniKey CORE Platform API

With the UniKey Core Platform API you can build products which respond to lock/unlock events. A good example may be turning on your lights as your door is unlocked. In the future we’ll also be opening up a new API which allows remote commands, such as locking your door when your security system is triggered.

Supported Products

• Kevo 1st Gen (Lock)
• Kevo 2nd Gen (Lock)
• Kevo Plus (Gateway)

The Basics

We employ a simple REST based JSON API. If you’ve used other popular REST APIs, you should feel right at home. We’ve tried to keep things simple and are always looking for feedback at apidev@unikey.com
