My fault for calling it that. It's REST-ish, but not RESTful. Tesla never called it that (they don't even officially acknowledge the API), so it shouldn't be misconstrued as them not knowing what REST is. This is their internal API for the mobile apps, so they're free to design it however they like.




How is it REST-ish, even?


True. This always comes up whenever it gets posted here or on Reddit, so I just renamed it to the "Model S JSON API" to stop that argument from coming up again.


I use this API daily. I agree with some of the others. It works. I don't really care if it's REST or not.

Of course, if the API is going to be growing, you may want to organize it in a guessable format...also, if it's going to be growing, I wouldn't mind helping/testing. :D
