You have to buy special $3000 computer handhelds that plug into the car and let you interface with it completely. Often you can only buy those with a business account direct from the manufacturer.

You cand do a little bit with OBD II using a $10 Bluetooth dongle and free app. But that's basically limited to reading and clearing codes.

I got an OBD-II device for reading and clearing codes and at least I can snatch them from my vehicle. I haven't heard of the dongle before, does it connect to the infotainment system and then allow you access to the underlying file system? I don't want to brick anything doing that lol
