Model S REST API

[msgfromside3]

I did that yesterday after work because it was not touchable.

Maybe I will shutdown the car today when I get home and restart completely.

EDIT: Well, why not do that now...

I'm working on my own personal alexa service to control my car. I noticed the API allows you to open the trunk. Is there a method to close the trunk?

Seeing an odd thing right now with the API, from EC2 instances can't connect to the Telsa API. From outside places (my house etc) I can. Anyone else seeing this? Thoughts?

Yeah, I am having trouble as well using the API. I keep getting request timed out. Funny thing is that it works on my localmachine but does not work on my deployed Heroku application.

The Car API is now accessible once again from AWS. Odd period of about 12 hours where NO access from any AWS machine (tried different regions etc) could get to the Tesla car JSON API.

Heroku is on top of AWS so they took out Heroku too for a while. Everything is back working again until they play mysterious games again.

That was a weird night over here at mission control...

I did read the posts related to this but none of them is about what these timestamps are associated with.

I treat it as the time that the tesla servers last got data from the car.

The timestamps are not constant and change every time you make a query. So, they seem to correspond to the time that the response was give to the client. This makes it not very useful.
They seem to be in the "numbers of seconds since 1970" format.

I'm glad it wasn't only me who had this problem. I started to consider moving my server to another backend provider.
It's working again today.

I didn't get a chance to check it again last night but it's working now. I assumed my token expired but it didn't because now the api is working with the old token. gremlins.

Quick question. Is there any RSS feed or something else I can query to find out the latest firmware thats being pushed.
I know how to get whats installed on the car, but more interested in whats new and being pushed. I could try and scrape ev-fw but would be nice if there was an RSS or REST API that I can call.

Not that I know, I use this once a day (and display it on my Desktop with conky):

lynx -useragent=mozilla --dump "http://ev-fw.com/tesla/track-reports.php?notabs" | egrep -A10 "(build-day|model-countries)"

Is there an API to get the number of free supercharger slots in a SC location?

Was working for me yesterday and earlier today as well. but looks like it is getting blocked again...

Same here. I was worried yesterday that my server on Heroku was blocked by Tesla, but since we are all experiencing the same problems at the same time that is probably not the case? Are Amazon having problems today also?

We've spread over a few different cloud providers, google and digital ocean seem to have access.

Ok. Do you believe this is a temporary issue?
Who is to blame? Heroku? Tesla? Amazon?
