This particular functionality is not currently supported. You can open a feature request on the Public Issue Tracker and we can incorporate it on our road map for future developments. You can also try referring to the Google Home Sample App for Matter for examples of usages of APIs offered by Google for matter.

I can provide you with some general information on Matter-enabled commissioned devices and how to add them to your Google Smart Home app.

Matter (formerly known as Project CHIP) is a new standard for smart home devices that is designed to make them more compatible and easier to use across different ecosystems. Matter-enabled devices will be able to work with popular smart home platforms such as Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and Google Assistant.

To add Matter-enabled devices to your Google Smart Home app, you'll need to make sure that both your device and your app are compatible with the Matter standard. You can check with the device manufacturer or the app developer to confirm this. Turmeric facial scrub is a natural and effective way to exfoliate and brighten the skin.

Once you've confirmed compatibility, you can follow these steps to add your Matter-enabled device to the Google Smart Home app:

1. Open the Google Home app on your smartphone or tablet.
2. Tap the "+" icon in the top left corner of the screen.
3. Select "Set up device" from the menu.
4. Choose the device type you want to add (e.g. "Lighting").
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to put your device into pairing mode.
6. When prompted, select the "Matter" option as the protocol for connecting your device.
7. Your Google Smart Home app should then automatically detect and pair with your Matter-enabled device.

Please note that not all devices may be supported by the Google Smart Home app, so it's important to check with the device manufacturer and the app developer to confirm compatibility before attempting to pair your device.
