I never provided my Tesla account credentials and it always transferred the data to my home NAS fine.

The only thing the Tesla login is used for, if provided, is to keep the car awake when necessary for transferring the files. It does thing by calling the Tesla API and sending an appropriate command to the car. That's absolutely no different than you using the Tesla app to do the same.Does anyone have any experience with having the Pi migrate the TeslaCam files to a share/NAS without providing Tesla account credentials? I see the option (in the TeslaUSB conf) to provide Tesla account credentials to keep the car awake but personally, I wouldn't feel comfortable providing this.
I bought everything needed to lay down TeslaUSB (marcone branch) but now I'm wondering if I really want to. Part of me wants to just throw together my own cron job or something to migrate data but the same sleeping issue would exist if it was indeed an issue.
All the Tesla credential is used for is to generate an API key; once you have the key, you can purge the credentials from the flash medium.Does anyone have any experience with having the Pi migrate the TeslaCam files to a share/NAS without providing Tesla account credentials?

Not to poke a hornet's nest from another thread, but: if you do this, be sure the power bank you choose has pass-through charging. A lot of cheaper ones can recharge their batteries or send power to other devices, but not both at the same time.New You could power it off a small portable powerbank
So a basic question is... how do I run again the setup for the sharename variable to take efect please ?
ssh pi@teslausb.
sudo -i
/root/bin/setup-teslausb
Code:ssh pi@teslausb. sudo -i /root/bin/setup-teslausb
That will re-run the setup process along with update anything from the repository.
Is there a way to set this up so that the Pi can access a network drive via a device password, rather than an account (that requires a user name and password)?
The way to handle it is to create a user just for the Pi to log into that only has access to the shares it needs.Is there a way to set this up so that the Pi can access a network drive via a device password, rather than an account (that requires a user name and password)?
what do you mean 'device password'?
That may not be using Windows style file shares (CIFS/SMB/Samba) but using AFP (Apple specific protocol) instead? Are you normally accessing that drive from a Mac or a Windows machine when you use only the "device password" ?I have external hard drives connected to a USB hub, connected to an Airport Extreme. They're currently set up so that they are accessible if you have the password to the Airport Extreme (the device password). I was hoping to not have to reconfigure everything to add user accounts.
