BMRS API and Data Push

Guidance Note

1. Introduction

1.1 The BMRS

The Balancing Mechanism Reporting Service (BMRS) is the primary channel for providing operational data relating to the GB Electricity Balancing and Settlement arrangements. It’s used extensively by market participants to help make trading decisions and understanding market dynamics, and acts as a prompt reporting platform as well as a means of accessing historic data. The BMRS has a wider user base both within and outside of the energy industry and includes traders, regulators, industry forecasting teams and academics.

The BMRS initially lacked useable web services and unless participants subscribed to the TIBCO service at additional cost, there were no practical means for machine-to-machine data retrieval. As a result, many market participants resorted to custom scripting to access data from the website, which had a negative impact on its overall performance.

Since September 2016, users are able to retrieve all the BMRS Data programmatically via:

    • A Representational State Transfer (REST) Application Programming Interface (API); and

    • The Data Push Service – A near real-time information publication capability from the BMRS system to industry participants.

complex image of processApplication programming Interfaces (API), in context of BMRS, is a set of programming instructions for participants to access BMRS data directly from their systems outside of the firewall

TIBCO is a third party software and provides the mechanism for automated publication of BMRS data to market participants via a dedicated line.

Scripting (sometimes referred to as scraping data from the website) is the process by which users run automated programs which simulate interactive access by searching for and downloading data from displayed web pages at a set frequency, sometimes several times a minute. Heavy scripting drastically slows the website which may lead to interactive customers experiencing timeout issues, resulting in the website becoming unusable.

1.2 Purpose and Scope

1.2.1 What is covered in this document?

This document is intended to provide guidance for users into how to use the API and include:

    • Registration process and access

    • Accessing data API and Uniform Resource Locator (URL)

    • API functions such as search parameters

    • Structure for API request

    • Using and connecting to the Data Push Service

    • Interface definition (file formats) for the files which can be downloaded from both the High and Low Grade Service web pages

1.2.2 Are there any prerequisites?

To use this document, an understanding of software development, web services and the BMRS user interface and its data is required. By using the API, users agree to the BMRS Data Terms of Use Policy.

1.2.3 Can I access the data from the API by putting the URL in the web browser?

Yes – In this version of the API you can retrieve information using a web browser.

1.2.4 What do I need to access the Data Push Service?

Further details on the Data Push Service are available in Section 6 and a general checklist is included in Section 9.

1.2.5 I am having difficulties interpreting some of the field types for the Data Push Service; where are they defined?

Section 8.5 provides definition of the message types and field types. The Data Push Service data content is based on the TIBCO Service and for further guidance on the data items and field types please refer to the NETA Interface Definition and Design (IDD): Part 1.

1.2.6 What support does Elexon provide for the API and Data Push Service?

Elexon ensures that the API guidance document is updated and that the API and Data Push Service are functional.

Elexon has no obligation to provide further support beyond providing the API key, registration and access. Any technical assistance as a result of the API integration within your business processes will be your responsibility. To help users, Elexon has provided sample codes for the API/Data Push in the Appendices of this document (Section 10 & Section 11) and will not provide support or additional codes for the API/Data Push.

1.3 Getting Started

In summary, there are four steps required in using the API:

    1. Register on the ELEXON Portal

    2. Retrieve API Key

    3. Use API Key to gain access to the API URL

    4. Retrieve results from the API

These steps are detailed in the following sections of this document.

Registration Process

2 Elexon Portal Registration Process

2.1 Accessing Elexon Portal

The web address for the accessing the portal is https://www.elexonportal.co.uk/. You can also access this by clicking on the “Elexon Portal” button at the top of the BMRS or Elexon websites.

Once the page has loaded use your log in credentials to access the page or register as shown below.

Log in

OR

Register

Figure 2: Accessing the Elexon Portal

complex image of process2.2 Registration

Follow the instructions on the screen to register.

Figure 3: Portal registration screen

Once you have entered all the details, you will be asked to activate the account. A link and an activation code will be sent to the email address you used during the registration process.

3 The API Key

The API key has three primary functions:

    • Identify the program calling the API;

    • Serves as authentication code; and

    • Monitor and control usage for overall service protection.

Once you have registered, you will have access to a range of content available on the ELEXON Portal. To get your API Key, click on ‘my profile’ below and you will find the API key under scripting key.

Note: The key shown below is for illustration purposes and is not a valid key.

Note: The API Key will also serve as authentication for the Data Push Service

Accessing the API

4 Data available through APIs

This section of the document details the API design to enable the user to retrieve data from BMRS. In particular highlights the following:

    • API Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)

    • The search parameters which will be passed as input parameters in the API URIs

    • Expected format for returned results

4.1 API Design and Key Features

A sample URI is shown below.

complex image of process

Figure 5: API URL example

    • Host address: This is the first portion of the URI, and identifies the internet address of the BMRS;

    • Port Number: The communications endpoint for the API;

    • Report name: The unique identifier for the report generated by the API;

    • Version number: The version of the API being called;

    • API Key: The unique authentication code granted to the users via the ELEXON Portal, giving them rights and permissions to use the API;

    • Search Parameters: Parameters available to filter the reports, such as Settlement Date and Settlement Period; and

    • Response format: The file format by which the API will return data, either CSV or XML (with XML being the default).

For the API, you will use the following:

    • HOST: https://api.bmreports.com

    • PORT: 443. (Do not need to specify, as this is the default port for HTTPS)

    • REPORT NAME: Already included in the API flow details

    • VERSION NUMBER: v1 or V1 (case insensitive)

    • API Key: Your API Key from ELEXON Portal
