Create an automation to stream camera feed on Nest display

[Kezanian]

My goal is setup an automation that would be triggered at 7 pm every night and stream the camera feed of our nursery crib camera on to two nest hub max.

What works:

- The cameras are made by Ubiquiti and I have him integrated into the google ecosystem using Scrypted.

- I can see the cameras in google home under "cameras". 

- I can use voice and ask it to "Show nursery crib". It plays without a problem

What doesn't work:

- I couldn't find a command to start a camera stream within an automation

- I tried create an automation with the command "Show nursery crib" but this fails

- I also noticed that if i say "Play nursery crib on family room display" does not work either

Appreciate your help.

Hi Kezanian,

Thanks for posting! I understand that you want to create an automation to stream a camera feed to your two Nest Hub Max devices. I appreciate the information you provided. I'd be happy to share more information about this with you.

The best recommendation would be to try using scripted automations. These are helpful for creating advanced household routines. The script editor allows you to program scripted automations with additional starters, conditions, actions, and advanced logic.

You can check the "Write scripted automations with the script editor" and "Create advanced home automations with the script editor" articles for more information

If you have more questions, you can visit the Developer Center.

I hope this helps!

Best regards,
Jenny
