Hi,

Is it possible to read out the Google Home Graph to get the state of connected devices?  
For example:

- Can I get the destination temperature of my Nest Thermostat?
- Can I get the remaining time of a running Timer on my Google Home?
- Is my Hue light on at the moment?

I know there are several custom nodes to create 'virtual' devices on Google Home and interact with them. (eg: node-red-contrib-googlehome, node-red-contrib-nora)

But as far as I know, those interactions are only possible with the created 'virtual' devices, not existing ones.

Nest **had** a nice API but that's deprecated ... There are no alternatives yet, as far as I know?

Thanks!  
Gert
