Staring camera stream on my hub through automated scripts stopped working.

I had a scropt running with the voice command "stream camera bedroom kids to hub camera" and a other script that gave command "stream dog camera on hub" this always worked perfect and both camera streams where shown on the desired hubs gen2. Now since about 24 hours this stopped working out of nothing. Also if I give the command directly by voice on the hub itself, or if it give the command on my phone's Google assistant it not works and I get this message "Sorry, it looks like the stream is currently unavailable from the Bedroom Kids." and "Sorry, it looks like the stream is currently unavailable from the Dog Camera." When I check in my Google home app both these cameras work, as do my other 5 Google camera's, also I can access my camera's through the home control section of my hubs and my Google chromecasts with TV.

 

I already tried basic things like device reboots and network reboot, any help please because I rely on these automated scripts to work!

I'm getting the same message on both my hubs, I guarantee there was an update pushed out. This happened about a year ago and broke both. Here we go again

Yes most likely they changed something on side of Google. Hope they fix it soon, it takes away the use if you can not stream your cameras using scripts or voice commands through Google assistant.

Hello folks, 

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Nest Community Forum. I’m sorry to know you’re experiencing issues trying to stream your cameras on your Nest Hub 2nd gen via voice command using the Google Assistant. No worries; it’s a pleasure to be able to assist you. 

I'd like to ask you a few questions in order to gather more information and find the best way to fix it.

  • Did you set up a voice match?
  • What is the version of your Google Home app? Is it updated to the latest version of 3.40?
  • What is the Fuchsia version of your Nest Hub 2nd gen display? To find this information, refer to this article: Google speaker and display firmware versions and release notes
  • When did the issue start?
  • Is it a routine created by you or created via a script editor?
  • Did something change in the script editor?
  • What did the script indicate?
  • Did you use the Validate button to reveal any validation errors?
  • Are you joined in the Public Preview?

I'll look forward to your response.

 

Best regards, 

Daniel
