Want to know how to add your scenes, automations and scripts into Google Home? I gotchu covered 👇

yeeeeeees
is this still current?
I just followed this tutorial to set it up. Some of the buttons on googles site have moved around a tiny bit like where to generate the key but I think the changes are logical and easy enough to figure out with no background in using these google tools.

This is by far the most technical video I have watched. Very well done. As long as I pause it every 10 seconds - I can get through this! Thanks!
Thanks Robert, appreciate it! You can do it 🙌
Wow! Thank you so much!!! This step by step tutorial was so clear and detailed. ESH IS the reference for the smart home!
Thank you sir, appreciate it 🙏
just literally switched on youtube to do this and was the first video in my feed, good timing!
Mind reader 🤯😂
@@EverythingSmartHome finally got everything working after a faff regarding duck dns and my pf sense fire wall but house is finally online with google! brilliant guide nice one!
Awesome, glad it worked! If you need help in future feel free to hop into the discord and someone will help you out! Or of course if you just wanna hang out in general 😅
Amazing explanation of how to make this work! Thank you. Thank goodness for the pause and rewind button! Well done.
Thank you for watching!
This worked perfectly. Some slight interfaces like the keys moving to a tab but pretty much the same as you demoed. Thank you so much stepping through this
Nice one!
This must be the best video I've ever seen about this topic!
For the first time ever I can finally use Google Home to control Home Assistant!
Thank you so much!
Haha thanks, glad it was useful!
Great tutorial. I really enjoy watching your tutorials and running through all that HA stuff step by step. Many Thanks!
Thank you, really appreciate it!
You saved my life in 2022. It was a lot of time i was not understanding how to configure the voice command and just following this tutorial you made, you made my year. Thanks a lot 😁
Nice one, glad it helped!
Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Awesome tutorial that works just as expected. Thank you!
Excellent!
Thank you for the explanation. The instructions were really clear and easy to follow without any unnecessary details or complications.
LOVE YOUR TUTORIALS!! Seriously I'm new to home assistant, and as someone who is technically literate, but not coding literate, your tutorials have been a life saver. Always VERY in depth and good explanations as to why were are doing something, but never TOO in depth as to scare you away from finishing. Plus his smooth Irish accent is always so reassuring haha jk!!
The only thing I could be missing would be if you maybe included your key strokes on screen, as someone new to this may have missed a space here or there that would make this not work for 5 mins and make him start from the beginning thinking I missed a crucial step and making him want to defenestrate himself out of a window trying to figure out where he F****d up only to realize it was literally just a missing space in the config file or something like that. Not sure if that would ever happen to anyone.........
Haha thanks, glad they are useful and appreciate the feedback! Also, it's a Scottish accent but you were close 😅
great tutorial, followed your previous guide using cloudflare then this guide, initially it didn't work until I removed the port numbers when setting up Google. all working 100% now. thanks for your time and effort
Haha, same here. Only belatedly realizing that he can't have been using the Cloudflared config because this video was posted nearly two years ago (plus I'm pretty sure the Cloudflare tunnel implementation was different before March 2022). And here I am scratching my head, "why am I putting the ports in when I have a tunnel set up? Oh well, la di da!"
So needed this video! I have my Zigbee devices connected to a Smartthings hub which is connected to HA via the Smartthings ntegration. I've decided to connect my Zigbee devices via ZHA (with a Sonoff Dongle). I realised the devices connected to ZHA didn't appear on Google Home and I have a number of Google Hubs. This video saved the day. Thank you very much!
Lewis! You are Awesome as always! I had this already setup and working but had some minor errors I ignored in the logs. Followed your video and realized my mistakes and easily fixed them! Thanks Again!!
Your too kind Mark, thanks for watching and commenting! Glad you got it sorted 🙏
Nice tutorial! I'll keep using my cloud subscription though as I enjoy home assistant so much I want to support them. It's good that there's a free alternative as well though (as there should with an open source project like this)!
I had done it before ages ago, but this gave me the latest way of doing it. Saved a lot of time, appreciate it.
Excellent glad it was useful!
Worked on first try, awesome! Liked and Subscribed.
Nice, detailed tutorial! Can you follow up with a step by step on how to enable "local fulfillment" in Assistant so commands can be routed from Home devices through local network, rather than through the cloud?
I had no idea that this was a thing - it's exactly what is needed!
Followed and got it working in no time! Masterpiece!
Thank you buddy!
Great walkthrough, thank you really comprehensive
Muito Obrigado pelo vídeo e pelo compartilhamento de conhecimento. Excelente tutorial.
Followed along with the video and it worked the first time. Didn't understand ANYTHING within the cloud but it works lol. I did add port 443 just in case.
Thank you so much, I can't tell you how many times i've tried to get tasmota/sonoff in home assistant tied to google home, this the ONLY video that explained it start to finish with ease and simplicity.......bring on the automations ;-)
Nice one, glad it worked! 👍
Great help! Thank you so much, and I was able to get Alexa working with Home Assistant.
Excellent glad it worked!
Your smile after the first voice command was exactly the same as my smile ;) thx for this tutorial!!!
Thank you very ver much , I supported creators for a year but I needed to use the money to support others. Great video, a little fast and a lot of pauses to complete, google console has changed and I had some trouble finding the right options but in less than 30 minutes I got it to work.
Cheers!
Excellent tutorial, worked flawlessly, thank you so much
Thanks Jack!
Fantastic Video! Made it so much easier. FYI, apparently now there is an additional ste under Google Actions where you need to add a description of the app, a logo for the app, your name and email, plus a privacy policy. There is a guide on the home assistant community if you google "can no longer link google assistant"
Great tutorial (I know you did this almost 2 years ago) and I was finally able to get it going. One quick thing, what's the best way to use SSL on Home assistant (running inside Docker) aside from using duckdns?
followed along without any problems thanks so much for a great video
Thanks Fred, appreciate it!
i have been trying to do this for such a long time. your video is brilliant. it explained what i had to do and worked first time. thank you so much.
Awesome, glad it was useful!
Thanks again for the great video. Very helpful!
Worked for me, thank you, keep up the good work, SUBSCRIBED!
Thanks Stephen! Appreciate it!
It works great, I was getting "Error: invalid client id or redirect URL" but I had a typo in the URL.
Thank you very much man 💪
Great video walkthrough. I started the process way back in 2020. You video was the step by step I need to be successful. Thank you.
Thanks David, glad it was useful!
Added Goggle too...super simple. Thanks again.
Thank you Thank you Thank you! Ive been trying to do this for a year and a half, this is the only tutorial that worked for me
Nice 🙌
Thanks dude!!! This guide really helped me
like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....
Thanks for your great step-by-step explanation! You are great!
Thanks my friend!
great tutorial! loving the channel
Thanks, appreciate your support!
Thanks for this nice and easy to follow tutorial!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
I was expecting some demo at the end :D, Will gonna try this when my nest arrive
WOW many many thanks dude. As always you are the best.
Thank you very much! tried other ones didnt quite work for me! this one was great!!!
Amazing thank you!
Great tutorial. Thanks a lot!
Excellent video, still very helpfull in 2023! Many Thnx!
It's worth mentioning that the exposed_domains setting (and a couple of others) in the home assistant config can be used to exclude certain devices from being exposed to google assistant. This is useful for devices that support google assistant control directly. For example Hue lights can be controlled directly from Google home, it's useful to still have the configured in home assistant for other purposes (eg routines & dashboards) but not have them duplicated in google home.
Yep definitely a good point!
yeah i use that, i have nothing configured in google home directly, its only allowed to know about what i tell it from within HASS
Can you exclude specific devices by ID or so? Or can you include only specific devices instead?
Very good to know, thank you.
I'm having lots issues with stairs switch and colour lighting Bulbs, was informed to use Phillip Hue lighting but no clue on their setup at all I have always avoided there bulbs but maybe to resolve the switch on the stairs it might be worth investing in two of their bulbs if I could get them to work through Home Assistant, Goggle, Alexa, or Smartlife with Android Mobiles. I do not want any more than this as its confusing as it for a Diabetic to stay alive without more on top, Any further help will be much appreciated! thanks for me seeing this tip here now from you!
this was awesome!! thank you!! :)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for commenting and watching, appreciate it!
Another great step-by-step tutorial. Google Assistant connected to my HA setup... check!
Once again great video!
Excellent Tuto, thanks Lewis for the great vidéo step by step
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, nicely explained
Finally! Thank you very much!
Thanks Jan, hope it was useful!
Great video! Thanks very much
Hi, thanks for another great video, got it up an running like a charm. I'm trying to capture all my automation logic in Node Red and was wondering if this could be used to trigger NR sequences?
Thank you for this, it works perfectly for me. 👍👏👏👏
You are the BEST, this is very helpful video. Keep up the Good Work!!!!!
Thank you Cia! Appreciate it!
Works like a charm, thanks a lot!
Nice one!
worked as a charm :) Thanks :)
Thankyou! At first it didn't work, but I changed the local ip to my duckDNS address and that did the trick.
amazing, thank you for the tutorial
Thanks for the support!
Great video as always, thanks!
Will I be able to query status of sensors "hey Google, what's the temperature in the bedroom?" with this setup?
dude you are a freaking life saver I am so serious
Glad I could help!!
Nice! This worked.
Thanks, worked the first time. Where can I find more examples of voice commands that it will recognize?
Thank you, great video :-)
Thanks Stefan, appreciate it!
GREAT VIDEO!!! Worked for me i just ned port 443 from u other video thanks alot.
Your welcome!
thanks alot fan from Egypt ;)
Great! Thank you very much!
Thanks for commenting!
I got to the point where I open the Google Home app on my mobile device, add device, and see my project in the list. However, when I go to tap on it, I get a toast message that just says "Something went wrong."
Any idea as to what might be happening here?
Otherwise, super clear tutorial and appreciate you putting this together. Thanks!
Getting the same issue here

Could you make a Nest integration to the Home Assistant video, please? You have the best explanations on TH-cam without BS.
Unfortunately I don't have a NEST device to test with! But thanks!
Another great tutorial. thank you. how can one go the other way around to import google home "skills" into HA. I am not sure if you are familiar with Broadlink I have a Broadlink RM4 Pro controling few dumb devices using the broadlink native app and integreated with Google Home. I would like to import everything in HA without having it to relearn codes and just simply import them to HA?
Great video! I noticed that not all my sensors are sent to GA, despite me specifically allowing "sensors" or the the actual sensor name with in entity config. What gives? Do I have to set up the sensor properly in HA? For the specific sensor I'm not seeing if from an MQTT broker. HA sees and logs the sensor no problem, but GA cannot see it.
Awesome! It works!
Topppppp🔝🔝🔝🤩🤩🤩 you always look magnificent. it is a pleasure to follow you. we look forward to the next videos. thank you for the work you do with passion.
THANKS! It worked! (in 2 times ;)
great guide!, thanks!!!
Thanks!
Absolutely brilliant tutorial. Struggled to work out why I couldn't connect the home assistant integration to my Google Home - I had a firewall rule in Cloudflare blocking access to my domain from any country that is not the UK. I tried to then also allow the US, but Google Home doesn't actually report any country when it makes the connection, so I had to add a firewall rule to allow /api/google_assistant after getting the initial auth set up. Thanks again!
I Seem to have the same issue. How exactly did you fix this in Cloudflare?
@@kimheymans6662 I'm no expert when it comes to Cloudflare, so use this at your own risk!
Under my domain > Security > WAF, I have a single rule which is set up as follows:
When ...
Country does not equal United Kingdom
AND
URI Path does not equal /api/google_assistant
AND
URI Path does not contain /api/alexa/
AND
URI Path does not contain /auth/
Then...
BLOCK.
The expression for this rule is:
(ip.geoip.country ne "GB" and http.request.uri.path ne "/api/google_assistant" and not http.request.uri.path contains "/api/alexa/" and not http.request.uri.path contains "/auth/")
As said though, I'm no expert, and would welcome anyone else with more experience to correct me if this is unsafe. I'd love to know how you got on though!
@@TheBelfastBikerOfficial thanks for the reply! In the meantime I fixed it. I’ve been too quick when creating the Google part and made a stupid typo…
Thank you! I was having the same issue and your idea worked.
THANK YOU!, i have been trying to resolve an issue with adding HA to Google Home app for the past 24hrs. it turns out I too was blocking everything outside the UK on Cloudflare, I resolved the issue by allowing everything from googles ASN number (15169) through the WAF
Excellent tutorial on how to set it up
Im just missing 1 thing.
Can it use voice recognition? and if so, how to add more users?
Excellent walkthrough as usual with every step covered. Any time I try something new in HA I always check your videos first. I've been having very slow responses when using the Nabu Casa option with my Google Home, do you find that this option has less latency?
Thanks! Hmm that's strange, I'm not sure I haven't really compared that two tbh, I'd imagine they would be similar
@@EverythingSmartHome I followed your Duck DNS video which was perfect, however my copy paste skills failed me and I got stuck for a while. Then I followed this tutorial and have it all working. I think it is actually a second or 2 faster than the Nabu Casa integration, and it certainly doesn't have the errors I have been having lately from the Nabu Casa integration. Thanks for the brilliant tutorial!
you just keep killing these vids. what 3d printer do you have?
Thanks James, means a lot! 🙏 It's a Prusa MK3s
Thanks you saved me.
Great Tutorial!!
I'm planning to setup Home Assistant instance behind HAProxy running on my PfSense firewall. Is it possible to integrate Google Home with Home Assistant behind PfSense's HAProxy? Thanks
Thanks man got it working when i use my phone but when i use my nest mini it seems not recognizing the orders or my devices am i missing something?
Hi, lovely tutorial. I need to confirm something. Basically, will this google assistant integration to HA work when internet is down?
Going to try this! Is there a video or a tutorial on simple command I can give to my Home Mini device that will start up a automation or scene? I'm newbie so an example how it works would be great 👍
Thanks! Yes there should be a round-about way of doing it, I'll see what I can come up with!
Great video! I just had one issue that I had to delete my port information in all the setup even though I am using 8123, maybe is my issue but that just solved it.
Thanks, glad you got it working!
Hey man I also used port 8123, and it works but it doesnt show any devices of home assistant in google home, should I also remove all the port specifics in the setup of google?
I had the same issue. After removing the port info in the URLs, everything worked fine. Thanks for this great video! Without this I wouldn't be able to connect my nest mini to HA
hey lewis the setup works flawlessly the only issue i am facing is very slow response time 5-6 seconds, my internet speed is fine 300mbps so that should'nt be a problem, tried local home sdk but having problem configuring that. any suggestion?
Nice JOB!!!
Thanks my friend!
❓Great tutorial and works well. Question: If I deploy this, will it be available to anybody or will it only be available when logged it to my Google Home account?
One topic/issue I never was able to figure out and doesn't seem to be explained on the web:
How to add multiple users to Google Nest and have these individual users connecting to Home Assistant through Google Home.
Currently you can easily add users to your Google Home so they can talk and play music with they linked services (e;g Spotify, TH-cam, Netflix).
However regarding the Home Assistant linked service, this is using the main user account. Meaning whenever another household user performs a command to turn on a light in the home, it is not the household user that is used to perform the action, but the main user is referenced in triggers, logbook entries, history, etc...
Any idea if this can be fixed ?
perfect tutorial! but i did not follow your first recommendation to use the google account email address same as the google home.
i have tried to add a new user to the project but did not succeeded to see the project in adding service in home app.. is there a way to add a new google account to the cloud project and have it working?
Thanks a lot for yet another great video! Unfortnunately at the end it doesn't link with home assistant. It just logs in into home assistant instead.
I would guess you've made a typo, join the discord and I'm sure we can get it working
hi great explanation but can you explain what is Fulfillment URL and from where can i get it
Try this video th-cam.com/video/xXAwT9N-7Hw/w-d-xo.html
Great Video! Can You show how to cast HA tab to Google Nest Hub without Nabu? and how to create automation to cast HA tab to Nest Hub. thanks in advance!
Hey just found your videos and they look really cool so far!
Do you have a tutorial on how to configure an Arduino esp8266 with home assistant to communicate roller door states back to google home as well as open and close? I have an Arduino script ready to act in regards to open, closing, and already opened or already closed but I don't know how to make this information get delivered back to google assistant and dictated to me
Works pretty good thanks. I was stuck at the JSON file part until I found your video.
I have a question. I've setup a SONOFF solenoid to open/close my garage door. I have also attached a door sensor from AQARA so I can tell if the door is open or closed. In google assistant I have setup a routine so that I can say "Open the garage door" and it will interpret it as "turn the garage door on". So the solenoid is activated. How do I integrate the door position sensor so that the door will only open if it is sensed closed?
Excellent! I would do this via HA instead of Google home, use Google Home for voice yes but use a HA automation instead
@@EverythingSmartHome Thanks I will give that a shot! Another question, now my lights are duplicated on google home. Both from the HUE connection and from HA that I just setup. Would you recommend keeping just the HA assistance or the HUE?
