How would I give someone access to my Nest account to view our Nest cameras and thermostats without giving them access to my whole Google account?

there are steps while completing "inviting member" in the google home app that allows you to limit the devices/rooms.

Hi folks,
 

Thanks for reaching out. You may invite someone to become a family member to have full access to your devices.
 

Here’s how:

  1. Open the Google Home app Google Home.
  2. Switch to the home you want to share.
  3. At the top, tap Add Add > Invite home member > Invite person.
    • If you don't find "Invite home member," tap Add person to home.
  4. Enter the name or email address of the person you want to invite to your home > tap Next.
  5. Review what’s shared when you add someone to your home > tap Next.
  6. Review the person’s access to your home > tap Send.
  7. If your Google Family Group isn’t full and the person you’re inviting isn’t already in one, you should get the option to invite them to your Google Family Group.
    • To invite them, tap Add to Family.
    • To skip this step, tap No Thanks.

Note: You can have up to 6 members in a Google Family Group. The person you invite should receive an email with instructions. If the person you want to invite has already requested to join your home, you need to accept that request instead of sending a new invitation.

 

I appreciate your help, RnAElec.

 

Thanks,

JT
