Automation when nest camera sees movement

Hi!

Since the last update 3 days ago, I can create an automation with a starter that says when a camera sees movement.

I created the automation but it isn't been triggert by the starter?

Has anyone succeed in making an automation with this starter?

I tried this too and it doesn't trigger. I know this is not helpful but at least you know its' not just you.

I tried to contact support but they didn't know the starter exists 🙂

Yep, same problem here. There's a couple of other threads about it as well.
