Automate Con Edison Without an API
Con Edison participates in the Green Button Share My Data program, which provides API access to energy usage data. But accessing it requires registering as a third-party data recipient with Con Edison, completing OAuth 2.0 certification, provisioning security credentials, and obtaining per-account authorization from each customer whose data you want to access. For a property manager who wants their own bills in a spreadsheet, or a CFO tracking energy costs across a portfolio, none of that is a realistic option.
Deck’s AI agent logs into Con Edison’s portal exactly as a human would, navigating your account, extracting usage data and billing records, and delivering them to your systems automatically.
What Deck handles on Con Edison:
- Pull monthly usage data and billing statements on a schedule and push them to Google Sheets or your accounting software
- Compare energy consumption across multiple Con Edison accounts in a consolidated report
- Extract billing due dates and log payment confirmations to your CRM or property management system
- Monitor unusual usage spikes and trigger email or Slack alerts
- Download PDF bills and file them automatically in Google Drive
- Compile year-over-year usage trends for budget forecasting
