no there would only be one light in the app, in this example it would be called “Custom Name for Google Assistant” in the app. However Google Home would also understand if you said “turn on entry lights”, or “turn on bright lights” for turning on this light
you can do this right in the app itself. set nickname to brights lights, entry lights. that way you can either say entry lights or bright lights. that should work.
I did not see that the Hass API can give the needed info for nicknames. If you find a way that the API can provide multiple nicknames, let me know and i will implement it.
Ok, yes entering mutiple names in one nickname works for the blinds/shades! Perfect
Are you planning on enableling input_booleans?
