Nest Device Changes Not Logged in HS Logs

[seanjohnfly]

Hi, I just purchased the plugin this evening and noticed that when a Nest-driven device changes status (temperature, humidity, fan, etc.) that it is not reflected in the HomeSeer event log. Is this normal behavior? Or is there a way to enable this?

If you have log level set to info or higher in the Nest config page, then the plugin will not log anything when a change occurs.

If devices status correctly change, then everything is normal. If you set the log level to debug, you will see that some json data is received when a change (temperature, humidity, etc...) occurs

Spud is that something you would consider adding as an enhancement? It would be good to see if anyone is making changes manually (via nest itself or nest.com) to the thermostats. Nest doesn't log changes but if the plugin can add a single line to the log "nest-tstat-name locally/remotely changed to xx" or something like that.

Thanks for the reply Spud. I'm thinking along the same lines as denisl, would this be something you would consider adding as an enhancement? My personal use case is that I use the HS logs as a record of everything that happened, correlating events and things like that. So log entries for changes to the HS devices (other than raw JSON) would be really useful.
