Describe the solution you'd like

It would be really interesting if there is a setting on the Teslemetry console to select which alert types stream. I would like to be able to configure scopes for the alerts and have it on the recent alerts / errors fields on Home Assistant. This can be useful to stream errors that appear only in service mode and not in the normal mode (UI Hidden).

This can be possible, setting "alert_types" on the fleet_telemery_config to "customer" and/or "service" scopes. I don't know if the Recent Alerts Endpoint can be used also.

Later on, this can be further enhanced providing the user the description of the alert using the "user_text" it returns

So when streaming telemetry was first added to Teslemetry I did provide the ability to pick which alert types should be sent, but it became clear this provided so little value as we never saw an alert that was service or service_fix only. So I removed the UI and made everything default to customer alerts.

I'm not opposed to adding service and service_fix back, and would prefer to just make it the default to avoid having a semi confusing UI that does nothing.

Ill have to investigate the text you mentioned more though as I don't believe that's always present.

Edit: for what it's worth I've never seen a good use case for the alert data. If you find one let me know.

Hi Brett, thanks for looking on to this.
My personal use is just to have a “log” outside the car. Every time I want to look into this, I need to go inside Service Mode, which if I can have it directly streamed (into Home Assistant or others) It will be better for me. Also, some alerts which appear under factory, service-fix or service, doesn't appear in normal UI mode. It's just an interesting function I'll be happy to have if possible.
Thanks!

If you modify your streaming config on the Teslemetry console it will now enable service alerts by default.
