name: NYISO Metering API
description: NYISO's standalone Metering API, documented separately from the Finance APIs guide and served
  from its own root at api.nyiso.com/metering. It covers submission and retrieval of hourly revenue-grade
  meter data for generators, ties and subzones via POST and GET /v1/powerMetering, and retrieval of calculated
  subzone load via GET /v1/calculatedSubzoneLoad/summary and /v1/calculatedSubzoneLoad/detail. JSON bodies,
  ISO-8601 dates and times, HTTPS 1.1 over TLS 1.2, and a rolling three-year-and-ten-month data availability
  window ending with the current month. Two-factor authentication is required - MIS user account and password
  via HTTP Basic plus the NAESB certificate associated with that account on every request. The root and
  /v1/powerMetering both returned 401 Authorization Required to anonymous probes on 2026-07-27.
