Parklio Developer Docs

Parklio makes parking hardware (barriers, gates, chains, bollards, LPR cameras) that you can control and monitor from your own software. The Parklio API lets you open and close products remotely, share access, recognize license plates, and read live occupancy.

Before you start Parklio has no sandbox: you integrate against real hardware. You need:

  • an API account, provisioned by Parklio;
  • an API subscription for each product you control;
  • the hardware, paired with your account in the Parklio Connect app;
  • a Gateway on the same lot, for remote control.
