Google Home - Actions (API) now available!

Hi,

Just got Google Assistant on my phone ready to test!

Any News ?

Looking forward to this

Is there a way we can complain to Google to hurry up. Or every one will buy amazon… :grinning:

I am also interested in this binding and integration.
Any news from Google side ?
I want to control some lights and ask for temperature in the room or outside.
Thanks!
Massi

Guys stop spamming this thread.

Github issue 26 seems to be fixed now - @MARZIMA Could you give it another try? :blush:

Already on it. Google devs contacted me.
Something is still wrong with the sync message. But at least, I feel like I have linked the accounts / clouds within the app. I am making short tests and will go deep on the weekend. Iam on it and will keep you updated…

Thanks for being patient. I am also heavily depending on bugfixes atm.
Looking foward to make it run…

UPDATE:
The quick test worked and the basic turn on/off just worked :fist:
That means in particular:

  • All cloud wiring, cloud-to-cloud functionality and user authorization/linkage works fine
  • The SYNC works to read all your openHAB Items
  • The EXEC works and the Items can be switched on/off

I will sit down to finish the last missing parts, test and see if I didnt forget important parts. Iam also going to write the howto. I will also soon contact those who wanted to beta test the action and help to find some potential problems, before submitting the action officially.

So good news! But please allow me to finish it to not give you small test pieces. We are close, thanks to 3 neccassary bug fixes from Google. Felt like a early early beta tester for Google. But thanks to the Goggle dev team, they had some stressful time I guess.

Will keep you in the loop and make you (hopefully) happy soon :slight_smile:

Best

Thanks, this is great news. IFTTT works well but has serious limitations. Cutting out this middleman will certainly help a lot.

You can put me on the list too. I have a Google Home and am eager to test.

BR,
Michael

i would also like to participate in the beta test if possible.

If you want to have another beta tester, please add me to the list :-). My Google Home (German version) is ready …

Joining your beta-test would be great!
Thank you for your efforts and work, @MARZIMA

Keep up on the good work :grinning: thanks for trying so hard for this it is well needed. I too have a Google home and use ifttt for now.

Available as well for some testing.

Same here, will be happy to test it in French !

I also have a Google Home and will be able to test.

Eager to test beta with German Google Home
