Is the Google Actions directory deprecated or broken?

In the Actions Console, my published google assistant smart home action has these links, and they're all broken. I get a 404 page when I click them.

View in Directory: en | fr | de | it | ja | pt-BR | es

Those links worked in the past, and I've published them to end-users. Should I unpublish them or will the directory be fixed?

I don't think the problem is specific to my action because even the "Discover more" link on this public Google page gives a 404: Discover What the Google Assistant Can Do - Google Assistant

Agree. Same happened to my Smart Home Action. My client is complaining. What's happening?

Thanks for bringing this up. As of June 13, 2023, Conversational Actions - actions that extend the functionality of Assistant with custom conversational experiences will no longer be available. All Conversational Actions will be removed, and will no longer be available to users or developers. We suggest taking a look at Smart home Actions for the Google Assistant.

Hi. Thanks for your reply, however both question above were about SMART HOME actions, not conversational actions

Thanks for sharing. I can confirm that Assistant Directory is no longer available and was removed as part of CA turndown on June 13th, 2023.

Thanks. Does this mean that Smart Home Actions no longer can be user-reviewed (i.e. 5 starts, 4 stars etc)?

That is correct.
