Google Assistant can't connect to hass.io

Hi all,

I have been trying to manually connect to Google Assistant for a while but finally gave up and opened a Nabu Casa account in hope that it would make connecting easier…But it didn’t.

I followed the instructions on nabucasa and I found the hass.io in the Google Home app on my Iphone. I can allow access and it says connected., but the wheel keeps turning for about 5 seconds and then it says that there has been an error, please try again.

I tried many times but to no avail.

It seems that my account is partially linked to Google Assistant. If I open the Google services page in a browser I can unlink hass.io. But it doesn’t show up as linked in Google Home app on my phone.

Is this a common problem? I just can’t see what to do.

Thank You

I’ve just encountered the same problem…

I’m troubleshooting, but please let me know if you find a solution.

Edit: are you using two different email addresses by any chance? (I.e. does your Google account use a different email from the one you’ve used with Nabu Casa/Home Assistant?

What version of HA are you running?

Just to close the loop on this, I was running 93.0 (where it would not work). I’ve upgraded to 93.1 and I was able to successfully link the hass.io account in the Google Home app.

It’s I fresh install. Running latest version.
Using same email address on Google Home, Nabu Casa and Home Assistant
