Hi, I am so close to getting the google nest SDM app working, except I can only get the any face option in the when camera detects a person. I spent 3 days getting the app to work, I don’t want to give up now. so any help would be highly appreciated.

Don’t now which models are “Legacy camera’s”, but those have an extra argument on the ‘Person trigger’ flow cards for faces

This is what I found, translated:  
“Known face detection for devices that support it, you can now select a familiar face in the alarm\_person trigger (or A Known Face, Face or Any).”

> [@Nederlandse HowTo voor Google Nest SDM App](https://community.homey.app/t/nederlandse-howto-voor-google-nest-sdm-app/47163/139):
>
> Over ongeveer een week komt versie 5.2.0 uit. Het volgende is nieuw: OnDemand snapshots voor devices die dat ondersteunen. Bekend gezicht detectie voor devices die dat ondersteunen, je kunt nu een bekend gezicht selecteren in de alarm\_person trigger (of A Known Face, of Any Face). Check je flows als deze update uitkomt! Aanpassingen die te maken hebben met capabilities die battery powered devices (niet) hebben.
