Publish a charger
Publishing makes your charger part of the public network so drivers can find and use it. You publish from a charger's Publish page, which walks you through a short flow.
There are two paths:
- Link existing: connect your charger to a public station-service charger that already exists.
- Publish net-new: create a brand-new public charger (and, if needed, a new public station) for your charger.
The publish flow
The flow has four steps, shown as a stepper.
1. Suggestions
GitCharger suggests likely public matches for your charger. Each suggestion shows the station and charger, a confidence score, and a preview of how connectors would map. If one is right, choose Use (or open Review connectors first). If none fit, continue to search.
2. Search
Search the public directory by name, address, or charger. You can also narrow by location. Pick an existing station-service charger to link existing, or choose to publish net-new using a selected station or a brand-new one.
3. Connectors
Map each of your charger's connectors to the public side:
- Link an existing public connector,
- Create a new one (you'll provide the connector type and electrical details), or
- Leave unmapped / auto-resolve.
You edit one connector at a time; each shows a status so you can see what still needs attention.
4. Review & publish
Confirm the summary (the station, public charger, connector mapping, visibility, and the exact action that will run), then publish. A live summary on the side reflects your choices as you go.
After publishing
The charger's Current mapping shows it as published (Active), with its station, public charger, claim, and mapped connectors. You can change the mapping later from the same page. Publish attempts and their results are recorded in Publish outcomes and Publish history.
