Hmmm. I don't have the set value... 
I think something is going wrong with Google Home services???
Nothing is currently working that's related to NORA nodes in Node-Red.
I've tried to unlink, then relink NORA in 'Manage accounts'. The Google Home app says 'NORA is linked', but when I go back into account management, NORA isn't there. Other services are working fine.
Can anyone confirm there's a Google issue?
I just tried and it seems to work OK for me. Nora works ok in my google home.
Thanks. I can see the devices 'connected' in Node Red, but when I go to the NORA token page, it says 'Your devices/state - No devices'. Is that normal?
Did your devices sync. Do you have any error messages in the node-red console? They won't sync if one of your devices has invalid state... (like brightness > 100, or humidity > 100, etc.)
Yes, there was an error message in the node-red console. It didn't seem warranted, given all the inputs were normal.
I've got it working now. The fix was to delete the NORA nodes, then replace them. I'm guessing something got corrupted.
The NORA account can now be added successfully. The Devices/State on the NORA token page are also listing fine. Thanks!
Dear Andrei, I'm using your beautifull nora nodes. I'm using it for a while but it seems when you choose a particular color in google home the values coming into Nora are different for my set of lamps.
For example if it set all my lights to 10% a choose a color for the whole bunch, the HUE output in nora was different. I assure you it was only coming from Google home app and nora (I disabled all the links to other nodes). I tested it 20 times with still the same result. Then I decided to open thee nora page to see the value in nora itself and saw also different values but should have been the same for all the lamps. Afterwards I closed the nora page, the values were all correct.
Is there a de-sync problem or something else between the choosen values in Google home and Nora when multiple lights(6 in fact) are impacted? Have you heard about this before?
Many thanks
maybe related.
i am using domoticz which sends out the hue status to node-red
i noticed colors were not the same
found out that domoticz is not capable of sending out the exact hue color.
I also noticed that the Hue bridge is slow in updating the light status to the bridge.
so when you change a hue light it first changes the light color, THEN it updates the bridge.
However when you change a light bulb it instantly sends out the status of the light in the bridge(which is wrong because it is not updated.
This problem is even worse when you update the hue lights by using a Hue scene
A hue light bulb will take roughly 1-2 seconds to update but a scene can take 8 seconds
what i did to corect this in nodered is
whenever a change in hue lights is received(either one light or a scene) it limits 1 message per 4 seconds
then i do a 1second delay.
after that i loop through all the hue lights and save the status in a flow variables.
after that i use those flow variables to update the lights.
I have a thermostat nora module in my flow - and have the "heat", "on", "auto" supported modes enabled. On Google home only the "heat" and "off" appears... the "auto" mode is not listed
Just checked mine. Likewise, "auto" is not listed.
Hmm. No idea. I don't actually use colored lights so didn't spend very much time testing it. Maybe it was a deploy or something. At least once a day the sistem restarts (heroku policy) so it might be that. Did it happen again?
This might be a bug. need to look into it.
Are there any plans to add support for fans? It seems like at one point it was being developed.
What have je placed in the inject NODE, can you share that, i am stuck there
The post that you have linked to was posted over a year ago, and I no longer have the flow as it was just an example for the forum.
If you are having problems, can I suggest that you post full details of what the problem is, and how you have tried to resolve it, and then someone may then be able to help you.
I'm going to close this topic - its been running for a year and has turned into a catch-all topic for the google home integration, making it quite hard to spot individual questions/answers. If anyone has any new questions or problems with the google home integration, please start a new topic for your issue.
