Ford Edge vehicle data API: signals, model years and connection options

DIMO gives developers API access to Ford Edge vehicle data. Model years 2011 and newer connect with a DIMO device (DIMO LTE R1 or AutoPi). Headline signals include odometer, fuel percentage and vehicle speed.

DIMO gives developers API access to vehicle-state data: diagnostics, fault codes, battery and fuel health, odometer, and maintenance signals. For the Ford Edge, that data comes through a DIMO device, with coverage for model years 2011 and newer. The record lists this coverage as tested, not expected. Query it through the Telemetry API with GraphQL, or receive events through webhooks.

Signals by connection type

No factory connectivity?

Ford Edge model years 2011 and newer have no OEM cloud connection listed. For these years, a DIMO device (DIMO LTE R1 or AutoPi) plugs into the OBD-II port and streams vehicle signals once the owner connects it and consents to sharing.

See the developer quickstart for how owners connect vehicles and grant access.

Events available

• Idling
• Refuel
• Harsh braking

Build it

Query the latest Ford Edge signals with the DIMO TypeScript SDK. The vehicle owner must first share access with your app through DIMO Connect.

import { DIMO } from '@dimo-network/data-sdk';

const dimo = new DIMO('Production');
const tokenId = Number(process.env.DIMO_TOKEN_ID); // from DIMO Connect

const developerJwt = await dimo.auth.getDeveloperJwt({
  client_id: process.env.DIMO_CLIENT_ID,
  domain: process.env.DIMO_REDIRECT_URI,
  private_key: process.env.DIMO_API_KEY,
});
const vehicleJwt = await dimo.tokenexchange.getVehicleJwt({
  ...developerJwt,
  tokenId,
});

// Latest Ford Edge signals
const data = await dimo.telemetry.query({
  ...vehicleJwt,
  query: `
    query {
      signalsLatest(tokenId: ${tokenId}) {
      powertrainTransmissionTravelledDistance {
        value
        timestamp
      }
      powertrainFuelSystemRelativeLevel {
        value
        timestamp
      }
      speed {
        value
        timestamp
      }
      }
    }`,
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
