Nest floodlight camera cannot turn on notifications in home app

[Freund99]

I just experienced that I cannot get the Nest floodlight cam into my Nest App. That sad 🤔. Nevertheless I have set it up in the google home app. But now I cannot activate the notifications in the Home app! Anyone here that can help me out with this problem

Google Nest decided that its new Google Nest cameras and doorbells released starting in Sept. 2021 would work ONLY in the Google Home app and NOT in the Google Nest app or on the home.nest.com website.  Since we bought a battery camera in Sept. 2021, we've been using 2 apps.

Go to your camera in the Google Home app and go to Settings | Events | Seen events. There you can set up Activity Zones, and for each zone, you can specify which events you want to be detected, and for each of those, whether notifications should be turned one .
