Integration won't save API Key

[JarodOliver]

Hi there,

I've tried to search for other people experiencing this, but I wasn't able to find any. When I add the integration and paste in my TeslaFi API Key, it throws a "Unknown error occurred" error.

I tried to search through the logs, but I can't find any references to this integration. I must admit though that I'm about a week into my Home Assistant journey so I don't know where everything is located.

Many thanks.

I've updated my development environment to 2024.3.0, just to confirm that it's working correctly on newer versions, and I'm not seeing any issues currently.

I'm going to need more information to be able to troubleshoot this.

• Home Assistant version
• TeslaFi integration version
• Logs from home assistant when you try to submit the API key:
  • To make things easy: go there first, and click the "Clear" button at the bottom of the screen. Then try to add the integration with your API key, and then when you see the error message in the dialog, go back to the logs screen and click Download Full Log at the bottom. Do not filter or search in the top search bar, because if there's another error, it might not be attributed to teslafi.
  • If you still don't see anything in the log at that point, try clicking the Load full log button at the bottom.
• Also confirm you can access the TeslaFi API, by:
  1. first log in at https://teslafi.com/
  2. then go to https://teslafi.com/api.php (this link will just redirect you to the TeslaFi main screen if you weren't already logged in)
  3. At the bottom you'll see a link that is prefilled with your API key - click on that
  4. Confirm that you get a page with JSON data. Search for "vin" and confirm that your vehicle's VIN is present there

KeyError: 'title'

I don't think this helps, unfortunately. This only shows a Home Assistant error, but isn't showing anything from the teslafi integration. Since it looks like this is happening in HA, it's possible that it might be an issue in your config entry. You can try looking at your .storage/core.config_entries file and search for teslafi. If the entry is there, then it should also have a title property, containing the name of your vehicle. If it's not there, then the error is happening before it can even write the new entry, but I don't see a code path where I could return an entry that does not contain a title. Unless...

Calling the API from a browser returns my VIN number / drives / etc.

Try this again, and search the JSON data for "display_name". If that is not present, or its value is null, that could be the problem. It should be the name of your vehicle.

If that doesn't help, it may be useful to turn on debug logging for the integration. Normally you can do it from the integration page, but if you're encountering errors adding the integration in the first place, you won't be able to do that. Instead, you can configure the teslafi logger in your configuration.yaml file:

logger:
  default: info
  logs:
    custom_components.teslafi: debug

Reload Home Assistant, and try to add the integration again. Then back in System > Logs, click the "Load full logs" button at the bottom to see the full log file. Then look for anything teslafi related there.

If this still doesn't uncover some information I can use to debug or reproduce the issue, then I'm not sure how else I can help. It works for me, even after removing and readding.

That will likely be the issue then. I never set up a name for my Tesla. I could never come up with anything witty enough so left it blank!

[JarodOliver]

Apologies for not replying sooner. I think that'll be my issue too because I never saw the point of giving my car a name! Thanks very much.

Yes - I named the car and it all works. Thanks all!

[jhansche]

I'll be honest: I didn't know that you could choose to leave it unnamed 😂 I thought that was forced when setting it up.

Since it affected both of you - I'll try to add a fallback name instead of just relying on the Tesla display name.
