"Connections" field missing in CSV response? #221

Closed jumpjack closed 1 year ago

jumpjack commented 1 year ago

Using this link, in the retrieved data there are no data about power:

https://api.openchargemap.io/v2/poi/?output=csv&countrycode=IT&maxresults=10

But I get them using JSON as output, in "Connections" field:

https://api.openchargemap.io/v2/poi/?output=json&countrycode=IT&maxresults=10

Thanks, our (legacy) CSV output is unable to provide specifications pre-dates our inclusion of kW. We don't currently intend to expand on the CSV fields because it can break existing consumers.

Is there anything in our documentation that made you use v2 of the API instead of v3?

No, I am updating a web page I wrote several years ago, I didn't notice I was using an old version.

Sorry, I don't understand your reply (I'm not native English speaker): can V3 provide kW data in some way? I still don't get such data using https://api.openchargemap.io/v3/poi/?output=csv&countrycode=IT&maxresults=10

I'd like to use CSV rather than JSON because response is much shorter... but apparently it's shorter because it lacks most important datum! :-(

We are not planning to add any more functionality to our CSV output. Please use the JSON output.
