Manual Google Assistant needs new setup instructions

[y8s]

Feedback

Was trying to add the Google Assistant functionality for non nabu casa people and ran into the depreciation of Google actions.

The actions page pushed you to use the developer console instead (actions is now view only and you can't add new ones).

The good news is that after some playing around, doing it through the new Google Home Developer Console seems to work. And other than a few changes to the process, has basically the same elements. I think you just leave it at the point before testing and add your service account, update hass configuration, then you can add it to Google home on your phone.

So the steps just need to be reworked to match the new console.

Would you be able to update the guide with the steps that you took?

I'll look at it if I get some time this week, sure.

I think the migration is causing some inconsistencies but I just wrote up the part of the process that's different with the Google Home Developer Console (as compared to the Actions Console).

Create Project in Google Home Developer Console

1. Go to the Google Home Developer Console
2. Click on Create a Project
   
3. On the Get Started page, click Create a Project
   
4. Enter a project name and click Create Project
   
5. Save your Project ID (it's under the main project name) for use below.
6. On the Project Home page, add a Cloud-to-Cloud integration.
   
7. Click the Next: Develop button at the bottom.
8. Click the Next: Setup button at the bottom.
9. Enter a name for the integration.
10. Select all applicable device types (you can select them all).
11. Create an app icon 144 x 144 pixels and upload it by selecting the Upload image button.
12. under Account Linking, in the OAuth Client ID field, Enter https://oauth-redirect.googleusercontent.com/r/[YOUR_PROJECT_ID]. (Replace [YOUR_PROJECT_ID] with your project ID from above).
13. Add any string (without special characters) to the Client Secret field. Home Assistant doesn't need this field.
14. Enter https://[yourdomain:port]/auth/authorize in the Authorization URL field.
15. Enter https://[yourdomain:port]/auth/token in the Token URL field.
16. Enter https://[yourdomain:port]/api/google_assistant in the Cloud fulfillment URL field.
17. Skip Local fulfillment and App Flip for now and
18. Under Scope(s), add email and click + Add scope and add name.
19. Leave the "Have Google transmit Client ID and secret via HTTP basic auth header" UNchecked.
20. Click Save
21. You will see your project saved with the status "Draft".
22. You do not need to test.

Finish Setup.

1. Click on the Analytics link in the left hand menu for your project.
2. Click on the Hamburger (sandwich?) menu and select APIs and Services.
3. Continue from Home Assistant Google Assistant Integration Page Step 4 (You're already in the Cloud Console).

I think the rest is essentially the same.

follow the rest of the steps in the hass instructions page. the local fulfillment stuff is all in the same page

Why haven't the official documentation been updated yet?

but in the page it sends you yo Actions google console to upload a fiile but there is no way to do that beacuse it says that is view only... Conversational Actions have been sunset. Changes can't be made to any actions. You can still view the Actions for a limited time.

[y8s]

go through my steps above. at 17 flip the toggle.

then try to do the steps from the original doc. you'll have to match up the old instructions to the new process.
