# Teslascope Binding
This binding integrates Tesla Electrical Vehicles (opens new window). The integration happens through the Teslascope (opens new window) API.
# Supported Things
All Tesla vehicles supported by Teslascope are supported.
Each vehicle is represented by its own vehicle Thing.
# Discovery
Auto-discovery is not currently supported.
# Thing Configuration
As a minimum, the apiKey and publicID are needed:
| Thing Parameter | Default Value | Required | Advanced | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| apiKey | N/A | Yes | No | apiKey provided by Teslascope |
| publicID | N/A | Yes | No | Vehicle Public ID listed in Teslascope |
