An easy to use, efficient way of generating your own Tesla tokens whether for our service or another.

Tesla SSO OAuth Token Generation

This script allows for the generation of a refresh token required by third-party Tesla services.

Setup

This method requires the following to be prepared and installed.

1. Install the latest version of Python 3.
2. Install the Requests Python 3 package (to install: pip3 install requests)
3. Download the file auth.tokens.py located in this repository.

Generating Tokens

To utilize this script, simply navigate to the directory where this file exists and then run the following command in your preferred command-line interface (CLI).

If your Tesla account has MFA enabled:

python3 ./auth.tokens.py -u 'email' -p 'password' -c 'passcode'

If your Tesla account does not have MFA enabled:

python3 ./auth.tokens.py -u 'email' -p 'password'

If successful, you will be given a response that contains your refresh token. You will need to copy the entirety of this large string to the third-party service/app of your choice.

Errors / Unsuccessful Token Generation

When attempting to generate your own tokens, you may get a response back that something went wrong. While most are self-explanatory, we'll break down each error below.

An error occurred when making a request to Tesla.

If this occurs, a general error occurred, and the script was unable to make the initial request to Tesla. This can happen at random and is usually recommended to just try again a few seconds later.

The credentials you provided were not valid.

The credentials that you provided to the script were not correct and we could not log you in correctly. Please double-check your email and password and try again.

Your Tesla Account is locked and requires its password to be reset on Tesla.com.

If this occurs, you unsuccessfully attempted to authenticate your Tesla Account too many times and was temporarily locked. You will unfortunately need to reset your password.

The passcode you provided was invalid.

You successfully authenticated your account, but the MFA/2FA passcode provided was invalid or expired. Please double-check that the code you provided is six-digits and numerical.

Something went wrong with the authentication process. Please try again.

A general error occurred when trying to authenticate via MFA. There is usually no explanation for this and very rarely happens. Simply try authenticating again (but don't forget to use a new passcode).
