How do I connect Schneider Electric EcoStruxure or SmartStruxure to Inbilit?
Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure Building and SmartStruxure are widely used BMS platforms. Here is how to get your meter data into Inbilit:
Option 1 — CSV Export (Simplest)
EcoStruxure can generate scheduled CSV reports of meter readings:
- In EcoStruxure, go to Reports → Scheduled Reports
- Create a report that includes your energy meters (electricity, heating, water, etc.)
- Set the schedule (daily or weekly) and configure email delivery
- In Inbilit, use Analytics → Data Import → Email Import to receive these reports automatically
- Alternatively, download the CSV manually and use File Upload
Option 2 — EcoStruxure API (Automated)
EcoStruxure Building Advisor and EcoStruxure Resource Advisor offer REST APIs:
- Contact your Schneider Electric account manager or check the EcoStruxure developer portal
- Request API credentials (client ID, client secret, or API key)
- Get the API documentation URL (Swagger/OpenAPI spec)
- In Inbilit, use Analytics → Data Import → Instant API Sync → enter the spec URL and credentials
- The AI builder will configure automatic data fetching
Option 3 — Webhook via EcoStruxure Building Edge
If you have EcoStruxure Building Edge, it can push data to external endpoints:
- In Inbilit, create a Webhook import and copy the webhook URL
- Configure Building Edge to forward meter events to the Inbilit webhook URL
What to ask Schneider Electric: "I need to export meter readings from EcoStruxure to a third-party platform. Can you set up scheduled CSV reports or provide API access to EcoStruxure Resource Advisor?"
