Device Access enables access, control, and management of Nest devices within partner apps, solutions, and smart home ecosystems, using the Smart Device Management (SDM) API.
Developers can use the code in this repository with the Building a Device Access Web Application codelab to build a functioning web application to control Nest Thermostats.
There are two variants of this codelab. codelab-start gives the full developer experience with some functions left blank for you to complete. codelab-done presents a fully functioning app, which you can deploy and use in a Firebase project after a few changes.
Follow the steps in the Building a Device Access Web Application codelab to build your application.
Create a Firebase cloud project to host this app. Set the SERVER_URI in scripts.js to match the name of your project.
Navigate to codelab-done/functions directory
cd device-access-codelab-web-app/codelab-done/functions
Install necessary dependencies for the project
npm install express firebase-tools xmlhttprequest --save
Navigate back to codelab-done folder
cd ..
Deploy the app to your firebase project
firebase deploy
Enter the OAuth credentials you created on Google Cloud Platform, as well as the Project Id from the Device Access Console to complete the account linking flow for a Google account with a linked Nest Thermostat.
