Tesla Auth Bot [DEPRECATED]

❌ THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN DEPRECATED ❌

Tesla's Auth API has enabled reCAPTCHA on /oauth2/v3/authorize and /oauth2/v1/authorize. Moreover, Tesla provides the code in a Location header, which browsers will redirect to automatically. Tesla will present a 404 page upon doing this. Consequently, the only way to work around this is to use a webdriver and capture redirects, which is only possible (or documented) with Chrome CDP or a proxy server fronting the webdriver, both of which are...a lot of work to get an OAuth token.

Tim Dorr's documentation does not document this. Users for whom reCAPTCHA has been enabled will not be able to use regular CAPTCHAs generated by the /captcha endpoint.

Consider using a mobile app with an embedded webview for your token generation needs.

Generates Tesla authentication tokens using their OAuth2 scheme as documented by timdorr.

How To Use

Docker

1. Copy the example dotenv and replace change_me with real values: cp .env.example .env
2. docker-compose run --rm new-token

Local

⚠️ Make sure that you have Ruby installed on your machine before continuing. ⚠️

1. Copy the example dotenv and replace change_me with real values: cp .env.example .env
2. Install dependencies: bundle install --without test
3. Run the tool: ruby generate_token.rb

This will provide an access token and a refresh token. Use the refresh token to refresh the access token every 45 days.
