Google nest flows don’t trigger with new doorbell

[Christian_Jorgensen]

Hi

Yeah it still works as it should! Not sure about that nest subscription but yes it should? Subscription is just for history - but I have it myself so I can’t be 100% sure.

Note: From my experience it takes abt 5 seconds from a person actually is in front of the camera until the action triggers.

I have used, slightly, the same method, but then with normal automations/routines within the google home app.

The trick, indeed as mentioned by Christian, is to create a virtual device within homey which is being triggered within google home routines via a google nest device. In my example a doorbell.

But could you show me how did you install that virtual machine on Homey???

Hi @Sasan_Khandanpour. As follows

Does this trick work without Nest aware service?

Hello thank you. Sow with this enabled it should work with the nest app or you have to do that fornthe sdm app to work?

[Glenn_K]

Hello, thanks. Works great for movement etc. Problem is Google does not give me the starter when some rings the doorbell only different movements.
