Setup and onboarding

We set it up with you.

We connect your plants to the GridMarshal platform, set it up for your team and show them how to use it.

What we do

Everything your team needs to start.

From the first data logger to a trained team.

Connect plants

Each data logger gets its own SFTP upload account. SolarEdge plants connect through the SolarEdge API.

Bring in past data

Where you have history in files, we import it so your trends and reports start with it.

Set up stations

Each plant and its equipment, set up in the platform.

Users and roles

Admin, manager, technician, observer and investor, each with only the plants they need.

Alarm rules and reports

Alarm rules with escalation, alerts to the right people, and daily and monthly reports.

Train your team

We show each role how to use the platform and the phone app.

How it goes

What happens, in order.

Six steps from your equipment list to a team that runs it.

02

We set up stations

We create your company and each plant with its equipment in the platform.

03

We connect the data

Loggers upload to their own SFTP accounts and SolarEdge plants connect by API. We check that data arrives.

04

We bring in history

Past data from your files, where you have it.

05

We set up people and alarms

Users and roles, alarm rules, alert channels and reports.

Connecting plants

How your data gets in.

Two ways in, and we check each one with you before we start.

  • Data loggers upload files in the GridMarshal CSV format
  • One SFTP account per logger, so uploads are encrypted and kept apart
  • SolarEdge plants connect through the SolarEdge API
  • Past data imported from files where you have it

FAQ

Questions about setup.

More answers on the FAQ page

Which data loggers can you connect?

Loggers that can upload files in the GridMarshal CSV format over SFTP, each with its own account. We check your loggers with you before we start. SolarEdge plants connect through the SolarEdge API.

Can you bring in our past data?

Yes, where you have it in files. We import it so your trends and reports include your history.

How long does setup take?

It depends on the number of plants and loggers, and on when logger access is ready. We agree a plan with you once we have seen your equipment list.

Do we have to use your setup?

No. Your own team can set up the platform. Setup and onboarding is for teams who want us to do it with them.
