tesla-api VS TeslaMate

API reference: https://github.com/timdorr/tesla-api/issues/16

It uses the TeslaPy python module. There is an unofficial list of Tesla APIs here: https://tesla-api.timdorr.com/

The easiest way to explore most of what the API could offer is though tesalmate. It's nice because you host the server and own the data yourself rather than trusting some 3rd party to do it. The API is well documented here, although the authentication is a bit convoluted, but there are helpful apps that simplify its retrieval.

I did update the unofficial Tesla API documentation to show the response to some of the energy site endpoints for my setup (Tesla inverter only). If you know Python, it’s fairly easy figure to out since the authentication work has already been done.

I don't know about any pre-built integrations, but you could build your own https://tesla-api.timdorr.com/

For the Tesla API you can use https://tesla-api.timdorr.com. Alternatively you can install some hardware in your car like CANServer https://jwardell.myshopify.com for info directly from the car.

These apps need your API credentials so that they can generate tokens on your behalf. They are most likely using the methods documented by /u/timdorr here since the API is still unofficial. Also, Tesla added CAPTCHAs to their "OAuth" flow, so apps now need to present a WebView whenever they ask to regenerate your token.

The graphs linked above were generated by a self-hosted application called TeslaMate, which connects to the Tesla API and harvest data as you drive, so I've got fairly extensive "health stats" for the Tesla I've owned. TeslaScope is a cloud based equivalent, which is cheap, and I also use, but mainly as a backup to my TeslaMate instance.

Interesting, that would work. I didn't know teslafi can CONTROL the car. I'm using teslaMate, which is basically read-only.

Does anyone have experience with a self-hosted solution? Something like TeslaMate or TeslaLogger?

So Tesla drivers have TeslaMate which is a self-hosted data logger for their car's trip data. Anyone aware of anyone building a version of this for our EV6s? The Kia Connect infrastructure claims to have an API. Would be cool to develop something like this for us.

I just referred to a couple of legs from my trip from Sydney to Adelaide with the pod on (using Teslamate) and compared it to another more recent one without the pod on. The last of the three will probably give the best example as it is while driving the Hay Plain which is one of the most boring, flat roads you could imagine. It was during the COVID lockdowns so basically no traffic either.
