Add front/rear defrost ON/OFF commands

mail@hugofrappier com 7 years ago updated by James 7 years ago 1

Winter is coming and in addition to HVAC, I'd like to also be able to "turn ON" the defrost in my Model 3. That would be super handy when we have icing rain or some other heavy snow. I don't know if the Tesla API supports that though.

Thanks!

Can we have alternate sorting of daily charging records?

krbabu 7 years ago updated by James 7 years ago 2

Right now, the earliest charges get listed first and we have to scroll all the way down to see what happened the previous night. Thanks.

parse API JSON response

swerthei 7 years ago updated by James 7 years ago 1

When I want to generate a new token to give to teslafi, I have to enter a number of fields that come from the tesla API response to the oauth/token request. It would save a lot of time if I could just cut and paste the JSON response from tesla that looks like this:


{
    "access_token": "xxx",
    "token_type": "bearer",
    "expires_in": 3888000,
    "refresh_token": "xxx",
    "created_at": 1535465729
}


and teslafi could just pull out the fields it needs.

Adjustments to tagged locations not saved

andrewlathom 7 years ago updated by James 7 years ago 2

When I create or modify a tagged location, I am able to adjust the size of the circle and have the change retained, but when I use ctrl-click and drag to adjust the location, it is not retained after I click Submit. If I re-open the tagged location, the center is back at the original location. Is there something I should be doing differently or is this the expected behavior?


Thank you.

Firmware Updates

andrewlathom 7 years ago 0

Does the dataset contain anything to tell that a software update is currently happening? If so, it would be great to have that as a separate "interval" interrupting Idle periods. If not, perhaps just insert a break when the data begins reporting a new version. I know your past update times can be seen on the Firmware Tracker page, but I'd like to see it in the daily detail list and calendar view.


Thanks

Model 3 shows all Supercharging as "savings" when most of us are, in fact, charged.

jverbil 7 years ago updated by SalisburySam 6 years ago 3

Every time I supercharge, I am charged by Tesla, but TeslaFi shows my supercharges as "savings." With a developing and ever-changing mix of people who are and are not charged for supercharging, perhaps you should give a configuration option to specify whether we get charged or not, with Model S/X defaulting to free and Model 3 defaulting to charged, given that most are set up that way.

Multiple "Offline" messages today after SW 28.1 update.... Mode 3

NJturtlePower 7 years ago updated 7 years ago 3

Installed update 28.1 last night on my Model 3 coming from 27.4 since delivery and now have three side effects so far as a TeslaFi since Day-1 user:


  1. Idle drain seems to be reduced by about 50% per hour based on my TeslaFi previous data logs/days. *That's the good one!
  2. Car does not seem to want to enter sleep mode as it did before usually after 30min of being parked per my TeslaFi settings.
  3. I've had several "Offline" notifications already today via TeslaFi that I've never seen in the past AND the Tesla widget on my iPhone 8 reports "Please Open App" which does bring the car back online, but not sure why it's offline in the first place.

Hi,


Unfortunately TeslaFi can't make the car sleep.  It can only pause polling to try to let it sleep but it's up the Tesla and car when it's ready to sleep and it seems to change with the model 3 on each firmware release.


I would make sure you have cabin overheat turned off.  I would also recommend not using the Tesla widget since every time you view it the car will 'wake up' and the clock could start all over on when it's ready to sleep.


A few software versions have displayed offline when the car is idle and it may be sleeping but it's not the typical way it works.  It changes from version to version so for now TeslaFi just includes this in the idle session.  You can disable offline notifications within settings->notifications if you receive to many.


Hopefully this helps.


Thanks,

James

extra page for data entry

tuna 7 years ago 0

I would like to have an extra page with very reduced view only for the data entry of tags and notes of drives and charges. With large fields to click. This would be extremely helpful for the data maintenance in the vehicle on the Tesla screen.

By the way: the selection field for the tags doesn´t work on the tesla screen.

Scheduling Corrections

James 7 years ago updated 7 years ago 1

1.  Add a wake command if API reports error 'could_not_wake_buses'.  Multiple attempts at the command does wake the car with the error.

2.  Exit schedule if response is 'complete' after start charging due to the vehicle already charging.
