Mercedes-Benz Remote Diagnostic Support API

The Remote Diagnostic Support API lets authorized third parties (e.g. roadside assistance, fleet operators, dealerships) read Diagnostic Trouble Codes, ECU inventories, DTC snapshots, and available resource readouts from a Mercedes-Benz vehicle on behalf of the customer. All endpoints take a VIN/FIN as the vehicle identifier and support async polling.
Mercedes-Benz Remote Diagnostic Support API is one of 10 APIs that Mercedes-Benz Mercedes me publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.
This API exposes 1 machine-runnable capability that can be deployed as REST, MCP, or Agent Skill surfaces via Naftiko and 1 JSON Schema definition.
Tagged areas include Automotive, Connected Vehicle, Diagnostics, DTC, and ECU. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an OpenAPI specification, 1 Naftiko capability spec, and 1 JSON Schema.
