Can't login, bad credentials.

[kemble9900]

Hi, just started with this as I wanted to start on a project with this library, it looks good but I can't get it to login.

I'm currently using this bit of code to test logging in

from tesla_powerwall import Powerwall

powerwall = Powerwall("192.168.0.164")

powerwall.login("password", "email") powerwall.is_authenticated()

powerwall.get_charge()

and im getting the error Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/caleb/OneDrive/Python/tesla.py", line 5, in <module> powerwall.login("password", "email") File "C:\Users\caleb\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tesla_powerwall\powerwall.py", line 66, in login return self.login_as(User.CUSTOMER, password, email, force_sm_off) File "C:\Users\caleb\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tesla_powerwall\powerwall.py", line 59, in login_as response = self._api.login(user, email, password, force_sm_off) File "C:\Users\caleb\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tesla_powerwall\api.py", line 154, in login return self.post( File "C:\Users\caleb\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tesla_powerwall\api.py", line 144, in post return self._process_response(response) File "C:\Users\caleb\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tesla_powerwall\api.py", line 88, in _process_response self._handle_error(response) File "C:\Users\caleb\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\tesla_powerwall\api.py", line 64, in _handle_error raise AccessDeniedError( tesla_powerwall.error.AccessDeniedError: Access denied for resource /api/login/Basic: bad credentials: Login Error

I've checked the username and password details are correct, which they are, I haven't noticed any errors in what I've written. I am aware that there is also a self.login_as(User.CUSTOMER, password, email) login method, however I wasn't sure what I should be inputting in the place of User.CUSTOMER

If anyone has any idea what I'm doing wrong that would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, kemble9900.

Could you please provide the version of the powerwall libary you are using: pip3 show tesla_powerwall As well as the version of your Powerwall: open https://192.168.0.164/api/status in a browser

[kemble9900]

The library version is 0.3.17 and the powerwall is version 22.9.1 bce98cad

[jrester]

Interessting, I have the same version combo and it is working for me. Could you try if it is working from the terminal, to identify wheter it is a problem with the libary: https://github.com/vloschiavo/powerwall2#post-apiloginbasic

[kemble9900]

I'm not sure if I was doing something wrong or if it's not working but I put

C:\Users\user>curl --cacert cacert.pem -s -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username":"","password":"PasswordSerial","force_sm_off":false}' https://192.169.0.164/api/login/Basic

into command prompt but didn't get any output, it just processed for a few seconds and gave no output.

[jrester]

No output is very weird. Could you try replacing the --cacert cacert.pem with -v -k?

[kemble9900]

That did give an output, I got

`* Could not resolve host: k

• Closing connection 0
• Trying 192.169.0.164:443...
• connect to 192.169.0.164 port 443 failed: Timed out
• Failed to connect to 192.169.0.164 port 443 after 21034 ms: Timed out
• Closing connection 1`

not sure what the issue could be about the port

[jrester]

Could not resolve host: k normally means you forgot the - in front of the k The port issue is probably because you are trying to access 192.169.0.164 but your powerwall has the IP 192.168.0.164

[kemble9900]

sorry about that, must have typed it wrong, trying again I got

C:\Users\user>curl -v -k -s -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username":"","password":"PasswordSerial","force_sm_off":false}' https://192.168.0.164/api/login/Basic

[jrester]

If even curl fails this means that either your credentials are incorrect or Tesla changed the login process.

@kemble9900 any updates on this?
