Looking at System > Logs shows a log message labelled So it would seem the code is asking for OAuth ‘scopes’ which are not granted by the ‘Application’ entry configured against the Tesla Fleet API for the Home Assistant integration – although all of the ‘scopes’ noted as being Mandatory in the documentation are in place. Time to look at the code, I guess…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking first at and some later code looks like it appends a list of specifically-requested scopes. Looking back at which appears<\/em> to be an attempt to say only the ‘partner’ scope is required, maybe – but that isn’t working?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adding the “Vehicle Information” scope to the Home Assistant ‘application’ entry on the Tesla developer portal made everything work OK. Presumably they assume everyone using Telemetry will have a Tesla vehicle. While this scope shouldn’t strictly be necessary, it doesn’t really hurt to add it (especially since my Tesla account is never going to have any Vehicles included).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I first tried to configure the Tesla Fleet API integration for Home Assistant as soon as the Tesla PowerWall 3 installation was commissioned, but it kept failing – without reporting any meaningful error message.
