New Google Nest Camera API Access

Hello,

The recently released new Google Nest Cameras and Doorbells are not accessible via the Nest SDM API like the other devices. Is this going to be added soon?

We appreciate your continued patience while we investigated this issue. We have received confirmation that the underlying issue related to the visibility of the Nest Doorbell (3rd gen) within the SDM API has been resolved. Please go ahead and re-establish the permissions through the Partner Connections Manager(PCM). Once this step is completed, your project will receive the necessary authorization for the doorbell. You should then be able to successfully retrieve the device in your subsequent devices.list API call.

Please confirm the doorbell appears in your SDM API response after performing this PCM update.
