Yes I would definitely run these steps if necessary.

I’m not realling looking to make money of of this though. I am a software developer and I was looking forward to create things for homey and share them with the community as I use alot of plugins that other people created as well. Currently I am trying to make the doorbell integration 100% solid (or 99%…as solid as I can) to make sure that I can deliver a product that is up to the Homey standard.

Currently have the following flow working:

It’s a bit hard digging through so many different docs 🙂

It’s the first time creating a Homey app for me (and I’m not really a Typescript programmer, my job is C# and used to be PHP. I do know alot of Javascript though so I can get the gist of Typescript pretty easy) and it’s also the first time dealing with Google’s very annoying API. I will have to combine OAuth with the Pub/sub services to get everything out of the API.

Can you also retrieve an image if the doorbell is pressed?

Yes, the event that Google supplies contains an Event ID that I can post to another endpoint to retreive an image URL and possibly even the video feed. I should be able to dump that in a Homey tag that you can use in an automation to say, stream the image to your TV or whatever.

That is great! I hope in using the image when the doorbell to be pressed that can be send to homey as a notification. Also to use this image to work with FaceID

i would like to use al that functionality 😃

What is the hub? Is that like a Google Assistant? Is that the display version of Google Assistant? I don’t think there’s anymore to do then the default chrome-cast app already does.

Check out the API here; [Camera &nbsp;|&nbsp; Device Access &nbsp;|&nbsp; Google Developers](https://developers.google.com/nest/device-access/api/camera)  
On the left you see device guides and the traits that each device has.

It’s an assistant with chromecast and a display. Which shows additional info on screen when you talk to assistant. You can also watch video like YouTube and Netflix.

Display information on the screen, like calendar, traffic information, recipes from a flow triggered by homey.

I don’t think so this is the old nest api that was killed for new users by Google in August 2019
