Device discovery and account binding through the Google Smart Home API SDK on Android follows a specific flow:
- First, users authenticate with their Google account through OAuth 2.0
- Your app then uses the Home Graph API to retrieve the structure data (homes and devices)
- Device discovery is handled through the
SYNC intent, which returns all devices accessible to that user's account
For detailed implementation instructions and code samples, please refer to the official documentation at: https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/guides
The specific section on device discovery and syncing can be found in the Cloud-to-Cloud integration guides within this documentation. This should provide the proper implementation steps for discovering Nest hub devices and binding them to user accounts.
