KONE API Services

KONE API (application programming interfaces) Services connect digital and physical services to help transform buildings into smarter, more efficient assets.

 

They enable your equipment, building systems, applications, and services to work together seamlessly. Unlock better user experiences, streamlined operations, and new opportunities to add value throughout the building lifecycle. All without the need for expensive retrofits or integrations.

Create connected building experiences

KONE API Services provide smart building APIs that give you access to KONE equipment and data. They support building automation with meaningful insights into people flow, equipment performance and maintenance activities.

 

Our API-driven approach enables companies and developers to create solutions tailored to their building and operational requirements. By making our APIs available, we help expand the connected building ecosystem and accelerate innovation in smart building technology.

 

Maintenance customers can connect their elevators and equipment to existing applications or integrate with new ones as their needs evolve.

Experience APIs

Enable smart building solutions

Run your building more efficiently, and make everyday movement effortless for the people in it. Experience APIs connect smart solutions – like delivery robots – directly to your KONE equipment, taking on tasks that would otherwise need extra staff. For tenants and visitors, mobile elevator calls and connected access systems mean smoother, easier journeys  throughout the building.

    Elevator call API

    Elevator Call API connects elevator calling to the systems you already use – intercoms, smart locking, visitor management, or your own mobile app.

     

    Connect an intercom or smart locking system, and the elevator is called to the right floor the moment someone's let in. Or let tenants call the elevator through their preferred building application and receive elevator status information directly on their mobile device.

    Service robot API

    Service Robot API connects robots directly to your elevators, letting them call and operate elevators on their own.

     

    Robots can support tasks such as deliveries, floor cleaning, and visitor guidance, helping improve operational efficiency and building services. And real-time elevator data keeps every journey smooth.

Operational APIs

Ensure cost-efficiency and operational excellence

With Operational APIs, you can integrate KONE equipment or service operations data with your building management system. This way you can gain insights into the service activities done to the equipment.

    Equipment Status API

    Equipment Status API makes it possible to integrate equipment status information and KONE maintenance service data into your chosen building management systems and dashboards.

     

    Through the API, you will get to know information like maintenance service order booked for your equipment that needs a repair, service order related to entrapment or when the technician is on their way and when the work is finished. Easy access to data about your equipment’s service status helps you stay on top of what is happening in your building.

    Service Info API

    Service Info API allows you to receive and inspect KONE maintenance service information and integrate it into your chosen building management systems and dashboards. This gives you a continuous, comprehensive view of the maintenance activities of all your equipment.

     

    You can access data about active, upcoming and past service activities, descriptions of the work, as well as invoicing information. A detailed overview of your building’s maintenance status and improved asset management help you make informed decisions for your building.

Frequently asked questions

KONE APIs connect digital and physical services, enabling smart building solutions that improve people flow, equipment management, and maintenance visibility. They allow developers, partners, and building owners to create personalized solutions by connecting KONE equipment and data with existing building systems, applications, and services.

The KONE Elevator Call API enables elevator calls through applications such as mobile apps, door intercoms, and smart locking systems. It can automatically call an elevator to the correct floor after a visitor signs in, enable remote elevator calls from a mobile application, and provide elevator status information that can be used to enhance the user experience within connected applications.

The KONE Service Robot API enables robots to connect with elevators and operate them autonomously. With real-time elevator status and direction data, robots can move between floors to complete tasks such as delivering goods, cleaning building floors, or guiding visitors to their destination.

The KONE Equipment Status API provides access to equipment operational status and movement data. It also includes high-level information about ongoing service order status, enabling users to follow high-priority interruptions such as entrapment-related service orders. It can be integrated into building management systems and dashboards to provide better visibility into equipment status and ongoing service orders.

The KONE Service Info API provides detailed maintenance service information that can be integrated into building management systems and dashboards. It provides access to active, upcoming, and past service activities, work descriptions, and invoicing information, helping building owners and managers make informed asset management decisions.

The KONE API Portal provides access to API documentation, developer resources, and testing tools to help organizations explore and develop smart building solutions. Access to KONE equipment and operational data through KONE APIs is available to eligible KONE maintenance customers with the appropriate API Services agreement.
