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?

[@hacwa]

I had no idea that this was a thing - it's exactly what is needed!

[@mjudge2]

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.

[@EverythingSmartHome]

Yep definitely a good point!

[@di5gustipated]

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

[@alejandroruiz8617]

Can you exclude specific devices by ID or so? Or can you include only specific devices instead?

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.

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

[@Aureateflux]

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!"

[@GalliumChef]

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.........

[@TheBelfastBikerOfficial]

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!

[@kimheymans6662]

I Seem to have the same issue. How exactly did you fix this in Cloudflare?

[@TheBelfastBikerOfficial]

​@@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.

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, KZbin, 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 ?

Is it possible to get a robust voice assistant that can do everything a voice assistant needs to do, but without collecting all your data? Preferablyself hosted. Google voice assistant and Amazon echo are just sooo useful, but I don’t like that big data collecting corporations have such control and insight into my (smart)home. I’m sure if they wanted to (or had because government) they could listen to everything I say and probably also give commands to control the network. I’m not it’s happened before but I don’t want anyone to have that kind of control.

But since this week Google Home is not finding my devices anymore, because of some problem with the connection to Home Assistant. I tried doing the whole setup again on a different google account using this video, but I get a notification that "[Test] HomeAssistant" is not reachable after trying to add it as a device in the Google Home app. I double checked everything, from url's to login credentials, but nothing seems to work.

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

[@guritche]

@@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?

Hi, what a nice video and have followed all the steps. It sync'ed one time to my google home. But when i want to sync my devices I receive the following error from Home Assistant : "Failed to call service button. Unable to sync devices with resultcode 404. Check the logs for more. Also when i say to google nest "sync devices'the message will be reported that devices cannot be sync'ed. I have tried to make new projects, but with every attemp i get the same results. I have looked several forums but i cannot find the cause of the problem.

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

Great video....as usual... followed all the steps, seemed to be going alright, just got stuck toward the end... @10:27, google home couldn't add the project. The created project is shown when setting up the device but it doesn't take me to home assistant login instance. Did I miss smth? Any pointers where I might have gone wrong? Thanks in advance!
