I was wondering if there is a way to send a restart command (maybe shell command?) to a Google Home Mini over local network?
Sometimes a few of mine becomes unresponsive, even when talking directly to them, and restarting seems to fix the problem. It would be great to create a script to send a restart command to all of them.
Looks like this solution of restarting all of mine GHM devices lasted for a couple of days hahaha
Let’s see if there are some kind of workaround this problem. I was loving to use the alarm information on an automation that wakes me up slowly by playing sounds of birds with gradual volume increase, 20 minutes before the alarm
Hi, I was trying to do the same thing. To restart my google homes from time to time. But it’s not working…
configuration.ymal:
rest_command:
# restarting google home
gh_reboot:
url: http://192.168.1.251/setup/reboot
method: POST
content_type: 'application/json'
payload: '{"params": "now"}'
and then I run this in an automation. But I get a client error (if im using :8009 (my GHs port) im getting it too). Any tips?
Hi, as far as I can see the API is now working again, but the script still does not work, does anyone have an update on how to make a google home unit to reboot? I would prefer not to connect them to “smart switches” to make that happen…
Can anyone tell me if this is still possible. Have tichome mini devices that stop streaming radio every so often and a reboot fixes it. Smart plug isn’t an option as they have a battery so turning them off and on isn’t an option.
