Google home assistant integration - automations only

Configuration
1

I think I’m going to try and have another go at setting up home assistant to work with Google home integration via Nabu Casa. my trial subscription has run out but I sent them an email asking for another month so fingers crossed I should get that.

What I would like to be able to do is have a automation which I can call based on a command I say.

I don’t want any of my existing entities to be available or controllable via Google home I want to exclude all of them apart from specific automations that I choose. Has anyone done this or have an example?

the examples over on the site seem a little sparse, does anybody fancy sharing there example?

Then you’d have something like:

cloud:
  google_actions:
    filter:
      include_domains:
        - automation
      exclude_entities:
        - automation.one
        - automation.two

Ok great many thanks so would I have to exclude everything I didn’t want or can I just include the ones I do want?

You can do it either way, you just have to decide whether you want to include all automations, then exclude some automations, or just include some automations.
