Turn on/off cameras in custom routines

Hello everyone.

I recently purchased a nest cam (2nd generation). The quality of the materials and the image is good, but they don't work properly.

The cameras only work with home/away routines. In any other routine, the nest cameras do not appear.

My question is. If i'm at home the camera is turned off (home routine), but i want to turn on (automatically) when i go to sleep. Is there a way to automatically activate the camera when you go to sleep? With the good night routine it would be perfect.

Another option would be to call the home/away routines from another routine to switch on/off the camera, but that doesn't work either.

Thank you.
