are you still working on this, @Bre77 ? Asking because it is in Draft mode |

Yeah I found some inaccuracies so I need to manually review this again. It's on my to do list. |
Proposed change
I have seen lots of comments about how the Tesla Fleet documentation is difficult to follow. I used Claude 4 to read Spotify and Google Drive then improve Tesla Fleets documentation
