Nest API available

[kellermix]

Did you all see the Nest announcement.
I am in desperate need to be able to switch my nest thermostat from home to away through Homeseer. Will this be possible now? Check out this link.https://developers.googleblog.com/20...essconsole&m=1

Yes, I saw it. Also anxious for a Nest thermostat plugin.

There was a Nest plugin here from Spud. Maybe he can update it?

I took a look through the API they've published - it's missing a few things I think are necessary, at least for cameras.

You can't set home/away, nor can you turn on/off individual cameras. At least, not if I'm reading the documentation correctly.

Since the built-in scheduling of Nest cameras is weak (either home/away or schedule, not both, and nothing more complex than this), this API isn't going to improve things there, at least not yet.

It would for me if the HVAC switches to away when I enable my Omni pro 2 alarm

Nest has been trash ever since Google bought them. It's time to get away from their products.

I'm looking for thermostat and Protect replacements. Even posted in the general forum and got 1 response from Pete. Any suggestions

Big5 plug-in is pretty good at handling all kinds of APIs. They helped me managing my API driven stepper motors.

Hubitat and Hass.io already have new plugins written to use the new API. Doesn't do protects, but many folks are reporting it working ok.
