Higher Limits for Open-Source Applications about fleet-telemetry HOT 3 OPEN

I also believe that this will be the end for projects like teslamate :-(
The rate limit on the API is actually OK if the limit of the Telemetry would be higher.
Currently the undocumented web socket API is nearly realtime, the current discovery tier is 10 items / min which is really limited and not enough to achieve the same as we currently have with the owners api in conjunction with the websocket streaming.

Any suggestions from Tesla side on this?

Firstly, thank you for raising this issue and making me aware Tesla had added this new open source category.

I have implemented the OAuth flows in Home Assistant and the rate limits are making it rather useless indeed. For some reason even polling every 5 minutes was still being rate limited, and I think I can't even have the whole interaction start up at once because it takes 4 API calls for 1 vehicle and 1 energy site, which also gets me blocked. (Products, vehicle_data, site_info, live_status)

I also don't know how command signing is meant to work but I'll raise that issue separately.

EDIT: This turned out to be an issue with having multiple "applications" under the same developer, and will not be an issue so much when my paid application moves to a paid tier.

Main reason for me buying a Tesla is free Software like Teslalogger .

If API remains restricted like this, there are many reasons for buying at VW, Audi, BMW in Germany....
Like much better lane assist, auto parking into garage, autopilot at more than 140 km/h, autopilot adapting speed to recognized speed limits, no phantom breakings, better ventilation distribution, more luxury feeling inside, and so on....
