Hi I hope some one can help me with the final step.
I’m trying to setup Dialogflow to Google Assistant to control hass. But I’m finding the documentation a bit lacking.
I have successfully made a agent and made a intent which then talks to hass and getting a response back.
But I’m missing some documentation on the final step getting that agent to my google Assistant. Is that the same way as setting google Assistant up for hass or how do I do that???
It’s not possible by design. The only way Google can identify which app you want to use is app name. So each time you want to use your app you have to say “Hey Google, talk to [app name]”.
Smart devices is the only allowed for direct communication. But for this you need to use another component - Google assistant
Does, your Google Home also responds with “Ok, this is the test version of …” after you asked to talk to your Diaglog Flow project? :frowning
I really hope to get rid of that…
But wouldn’t shortcuts only work for one intent (welcome intent)? So I would have to create multiple agents for every command? What’s the point of the additional intent triggers in the google assistant integration of dialogflow?
As i can see, i can only see dialogflow being used, to make small apps and the likes (mad lips, quize), because you first have to tell that you want to talk to that specific app…
the ideal for a home automation, is the simple command that has a trigger…
But i don’t know how to have a simple trigger to get information from hass, in a quick way. The only way i have found out is using IFTTT to trigger a script which have some TTS. But the hole TTS is pretty slow, so the reponse time can be up to about 10-20 seconds…
I was playing with the idea to use DiaglogFlow to have my Home Assistant Control Kodi.
e.g.: Hey Google, Play Movie “Twelve Monkey’s” on living room tv.
I did run some test scripts and I was pretty sure it would be possible to get it working.
But the complete response of “Ok, here is the test version of …” is a dealbreaker for me.
So stepping away from DialogFlow for the moment and looking for alternatives.
well…it would be indeed… Hey Google Talk To … and then “Play Movie …”
but the complete response "Ok, here is the test version of … " is a dealbreaker for me.
