Things to Know

  • Each install of this SmartApp will only support One location/structure and the Thermostats and Protects within
  • This version uses a new token which when we are ready to support it will allow access to Nest cams without needing to completely re-install everything.
  • The token used with this application is using my 'Works for Nest' distribution appId and secret. It's an older one which allows 1000 individual user logins before I will need to certify with Nest. I do not have the ability to see any of your data or who is even using the token
  • Devices that use html tile will not refresh with going out of the device and back in again.

Advantages

  • Able to add/remove multiples devices from a single SmartApp
  • No need to many enter device serial number and login info in preferences
  • Nest Login info is not stored by the application
  • No need to use 3rd Party Polling apps for device updates
  • One single API call for all Nest devices
  • Since there is only a single poll for all devices, updates are more often
  • The devices look great 😄
