Hi all! šŸ‘‹ Just curious, as I canā€™t find it in my settings or a discussion in this community: is it possible to connect to Google Home and share only some flows with Google? I donā€™t want to share all my devices, as Iā€™m not going to ask Google to turn on a light or something. Homey is already taking care of that, turning on the lights as soon as itā€™s getting dark. Being able to create a Routine in Google Home that triggers a Flow in Homey is all I need. For example: ā€œHey Google, turn on the movie lightsā€ is enough to let Google start a Flow, so Homey can take care of the rest. If this is not available at all, Iā€™m wondering how many of you would like to have this option. šŸ˜Š ---

1. @ Homey: Add the desired flows to ā€œFavourite Flowsā€ 2. @ google home: When creating/editing a routine - add Action - pick ā€˜adjust Scenesā€™ - when the screen returns, hit ā€˜Adjust Scenesā€™ button - the ā€˜Scenesā€™ screen appear, with your favourite flows listed Example: - select flow of choice _If you donā€™t see any of the flows, yell ā€œHey google, synchronize devicesā€, then theyā€™d appear after a while._ _And make sure to enable the Google Assistant synchronize switch. Then it gets synced automatically._ ---

Thanks for your fast response! šŸ™‚ At the end, this is all I need, without having to share my devices to Google Home. ---

Thanks for your link. šŸ‘ I see that more people are talking about this, but then itā€™s just a discussion about which company should fix this. Iā€™m a developer myself and in my business itā€™s pretty simple: the company containing the data is responsible for guarding the data. So when Athom claims to be the privacy-friendly party, they should be in control about what data will be exported, rather than pointing to the company that just imports it all. šŸ™‚ ---
