Model S REST API

@SG57 Do your App has a function like Phone key for Tesla? The Tesla App has this function can make your phone(iOS or Android) become the carkey.

 

first time I read about Teslalogger, is it better then Teslamate?

 

TeslaMate is a fork of TeslaLogger, but the notice on the TM front screen has gone away now

 

Depends ;-)

TeslaLogger has some unique features all other Loggers do not have, as far as I know.

See the screenshots here bassmaster187/TeslaLogger

 

Yes please!!!

 

I have not even once gotten the wake_up command to work. How often are people posting to it, and for how long, in order to get this working? Has anyone sniffed the app traffic to verify it's using the exact same thing and what it's frequency is? I've been using postman and just manually mashing the send button for a few minutes with no results. But, if I open my phone app, it wakes up in a few seconds, so I know it's not in "deep" sleep.

 

I don't know if this helps, but if I use my phone's streaming connection to summon my car at home, where there is both terrible cell service, and weak wifi in the garage, I often have problems and was told by Tesla service it was likely a symptom of switching connections on the car side, so you may be on to something.

 

When I get a 408 back, I just wait for 15s and then loop back round - take 2-3 attempts

 

Can I ask for the exact contents (minus token of course) of your headers? what are you using to send the command? Do you have a basic case using curl or similar that is not implemented inside a larger app?

Here is my command, for reference (copied from Postman Console):

I'm not using postman, I'm using teslaJS as the base hacked about by myself and called from node-red
mseminatore/TeslaJS

 

Don't all the other endpoints wake up the car? (The exceptions are the vehicle list and the streaming API.)

 

None of the ones I've tried (both GET and POST) will do so, although they will keep my car awake as seems to be the norm. I just can't wake up my car. Do the other endpoints in fact wake up anyone else's?

 

The dev of teslaJS also made a windows app; it asks for "Username" and "Password (or token)". I tried a freshly generated access_token returned from https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/oauth/token, but it just sat there with a loading circle of dots forever. Is there a way to get teslaJS or the Tesla Control Windows app running without supplying the password?

 

Answer to my own question:
install TeslaJS

picked apart login.js, did this:

Code:

node
> var token = JSON.stringify({copy and paste entire oauth/token response body here, including curly braces});
undefined [output]
> var fs = require('fs');
undefined [output]
> fs.writeFileSync('.token',token, 'utf8');
undefined [output]

then I was in business with teslaJS.

First attempt returned
Model 3 ( 'Autocorrect' ) is: ONLINE
WakeUp command: Succeeded
Vehicle state: online

However, when checking vehicle list, it was NOT online.

wakeup attempts from Postman didn't do anything.

As @goRt said, a second attempt from TeslaJS actually brought it online.
