Cannot get cam to share stream with public

I have installed my nest outdoor cam (battery). I can see the video from the cam, but can't get to where I can set it up so the live stream is visible to the general public. Help please!

The option to provide either a public or a private link is only available on our older cameras and doorbells that work in the Google Nest app. Google Nest decided that the newer Google Nest cameras would work ONLY in the Google Home app, where that option is not available.

That REALLY stinks!

Thanks so much for the reply though!

Hi there,

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this, as I can imagine it has been an inconvenience. I would love to look into this further for you. I am afraid that the feature you're asking for is not a current feature in our newer cameras and doorbells that were introduced over the last year or so. It only works with older devices. Please feel free to share your feedback on the matter in the app if you choose.

Best regards,
Brad
