Nest 1 gen and google nest camera

I have two original Nest first generation wired cameras. I also have a nest thermostat. I just purchased a Google nest indoor camera. I understand I had to download the new Google Home app to be able to view that camera. Is there a way to access my other two cameras and nest thermostat on the new Google Home app? I don’t want to lose the access and storage that I had on the original Nest app. So scared to link them to the new app, if it will cause me to unlink them there

If your Nest Account was created after August 19, 2019 (or if it was created before then and you have since migrated your Nest Account to a Google Account) AND you're logging into the Google Nest app and the Google Home app with the same Google (gmail) Account AND accessing the same Google Nest "home/structure", then you should be able to automatically view your older Nest cameras in the Google Home app and access your Nest thermostat, while still having access to them in the Google Nest app.  (The name you assigned to your Google Nest "home/structure" is displayed at the top of the initial screen in both the Google Nest app and Google Home app, as well as on the home.nest.com and home.google.com websites.)
