How to share sites from ENERGY STAR® into Measurabl

Sharing properties from ENERGY STAR® into Measurabl is a necessary step in order to have complete data for your portfolio, this includes all meter data, scores, and certification statuses.

How to share your sites with Measurabl:

1. Login to your ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager account.
2. Make sure that you have added Measurabl as a contact, so that you can share your buildings with us.
3. Select the 'Sharing' tab. 
4. Select 'Share with your Utility or Service Provider for exchanging data'.
5. Select 'Measurabl Measurabl' as the contact to share with (not a typo)
6. Choose the properties you want to share. It's best to share 'All Properties', unless you only want to share certain properties - choose 'Multiple Properties'.
7. Select 'Bulk Sharing (Simple Option) - I want to give all my properties and meters the same permissions.' > 'Exchange Data Full Access'
8. Select 'Authorize Exchange'.
9. After a few minutes, a notification will appear confirming Measurabl has accepted your building share.
10. Measurabl automatically will sync with ENERGY STAR® every 1-3 days, so any changes will appear after it has synced.

Additional Information & FAQs

• What are all these alerts that are popping up in ENERGY STAR after I share?
  • You may see some alerts in ENERGY STAR during this process. Alerts may appear advising you that you're overwriting existing permissions, if you're sharing properties that have already been shared with us. Those are fine to disregard, and won't stop you from sharing.
  • You may also see alerts saying that you don't have permissions to share certain properties. If that's the case, you need to connect with an account holder who does have that permission and get them to re-share the properties with you, either at 'Full Access' or 'Custom Access' with 'Share Forward' permissions. 
    
    
• How do I check my permissions and Measurabl's permissions to ENERGY STAR properties?
  • If you're checking on permissions for a single property, just head to that property's 'Summary' tab in ENERGY STAR and review the 'Sharing this Property' table. Find the account whose permissions you're checking, and select 'View My Permissions' Or 'View Contact's Permissions':
    

• • If you need to review permissions across properties, head to the 'Sharing' tab at the top of the page > Search by property or contact > Click the dropdown in the 'Action' column to see the options you have for sharing. You can also click 'Download Sharing Report' at the bottom of the page to view in an exportable version. 
  • Note that for Measurabl, the report will only list 'Exchange Data' in the 'Contact Permissions' column, so if you're having issues you'll need to head to the 'Summary' tab for individual properties to make sure Measurabl has full access to the property and its meters.
