How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit with bad nest?
HOw did you install it? I tried thru the REPO under hassio but it doesnt seem to be working… Config still says it cannot find badnest.
Did you install HACS per the instructions Here ?
Then add the baddest repository with ‘integration’ option selected as described above in the original post.
I hope that helps…
Struggling to understand those instructions. I am using this.
I added the repo there. Not exactly sure but seems the gif you sent has an older version?
Hi everyone,
I cannot find the badnest sensors or logs related to badnest after installing and configuring.
Can someone help me diagnose?

I just realized yes I don’t have HACS, I am going to add it in tonight.
Thanks!

Hi Everyone
I had this working very well with a drop cam, nest cam and nest thermostat v2. I upgraded to a thermostat v3 and now the thermostat entity won’t load. It says that it is unavailable. I have checked my unused entities and the climate entity is no longer listed. I can still see my cameras and nest protects.
I have checked and double checked my config and tried updating and reintalling badnest but it doesn’t seem to pick up the thermostat. I’ve also updated the issue token and cookie as well.
Any suggestions?
I’ve had the same issue adding mine - do you know where I might find logs to help diagnose?
I’m trying this one out next to my original nest API access, just preparing for the inevitable.
At the moment it seems the Thermostat isn’t updating properly. Is this a known issue and any idea what I can do?
This is showing in the logs:

Second topic is actually a feature request.
I know the cameras can have sensors like “has_person”, “has_sound” and “has_motion”. These are included in the build-in component and available in the API through: https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/cameras/device_id/last_event/has_person
Would it be possible to add these? Unfortunately I have no python skills otherwise I would have attempted it myself. Thanks for the great work!!!
@krock I’ve been looking through the logs in my docker and in HA but I’m not seeing any errors come through. It sees all my other nest devices and it looks like it was just hanging on to the old thermostat and not adding the new one. I thought doing a clean install of badnest and removing the entries in the config files would fix it but to no avail. Still trying to figure out how to resolve it.
I was in the same boat… somehow, though, I started receiving errors today - thoughts?
I tried re-inputting my token_id & cookie… but I still receive this error:

My instance started giving errors as well but I updated the issue_token and cookie (ran through the process again) and it came back, minus the thermostat which is still not being detected.
When starting up, it sets up all the badnest items (climate, sensors, cameras etc) but when adding nothing appears under Thermostat but you can see that the Protect and Cameras are being added.
Got it working once I got the HACS on my hassio. I didn’t understand that when I saw hacs…Lol
Thanks guys!
How do I call to change state etc. thru node_red on hassio?
Can anyone please help me?
I am totally new to Home Assistant.
I installed this integration, but i can´t get my 3 nest protect to work.
I added the following to my configuration.yaml
badnest:
issue_token: "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/iframerpcxxx.nest.com"
cookie: "OCAK=xxx"
region: de
sensor:
platform: badnest
But i got only “0”
Is your token longer than what you show in your post? This seems short …
Yes, the token and cookie are correct. I don’t want to post the right values.
I think you and I are stuck at the same spot… my thermostat worked briefly but I can’t seem to connect now…
my bad, what that error was trying to say was incorrect userid. Turns out while editing my my config I noticed the typo on my username/email 
Works great!
minor issue: changing the temp is in some odd increments. x deg C increments x.2 then x.7. Id expect the same 0.5 deg increments but at x.0 and x.5.
Just installed and set this up. Just migrated my nest account to google
I was ready to find another wifi based thermostat.
For now, at least, this integration works, works great.
THANK YOU!!! BTW< perfect name, badnest. Yes Nest is bad for how this whole thing has been handled. Just saying. LOL!
