  1. This is normal. Google Home devices can have nicknames, so the alternate spokens are the devices nicknames. You can turn on/off devices using their nicknames. Benoit

    The dimming problem is fixed. You will have to re-SYNC, as the issue was in the SYNC process. You can push it from ISY Portal, or just ask "Ok google, sync my devices" This is a problem that was introduced in the last update, in relation to color bulb support. Benoit

    I believe you uncovered a bug. I'm currently working on a fix. Benoit
  4. I think this may happen if you delete Programs on ISY then create new programs. You may end up with new programs reusing the same address as an older program. If you had that old programs in ISY Portal, and had not deleted it there as well, then when you try to add the new program, you end up with a duplicate.
  5. This means that the item (the program you are trying to add) is already in the list. Each program have an address. Use the search box to find the existing program using it's address. The program address has 4 characters, and you can see it in the program selector, it is in parenthesis. Benoit
  6. Yes it is expected, and it was he same in V2.
  7. Could it be that you have a device with the same name?
  8. I'm not seeing any requests coming in. Not even at the oAuth level. It looks like if the skill is not linked at all. Is it linked? If so, can you unlink and relink it? Benoit
  9. If the only problem is the Alexa app saying "There was a problem", this is a known problem which has been submitted to Amazon. Other than that, are you able to control your devices from your echo? Looking at the logs, I see no oAuth problems as we had during the initial few days of the launch. Benoit
  10. Good to know, I was not aware of this one. Benoit
  11. I see communication errors. It does not seem to be related to the same oAuth issue that was fixed. Can you try again?
  12. That’s also my impression Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. @rebirth24, In Alexa, does your ISY scene appear under devices, or under scenes? If it appears under devices, this is the expected behavior. Benoit
  14. Hi Michael, I am not fully sure of when/how the issue happens, but I don't think it's related to the portal upgrade. This error is shown when the google API returns me a "INVALID_ARGUMENT". This is normally due to giving it an invalid agentUserId - This case happens when the account is not linked (Google does not recognize the agentUserId, which is passed when doing the account link). Possible cases: - Google Home not being linked - Having linked with user profile A, then login to ISY portal using profile B. Even if it's in the same account, this error will be shown. - I'm aware of an another case, as asbril mentioned, and that happens when a user has linked more than once to the same ISY Portal account. I looked at the logs, and saw the failure(s). I tried to see which user profile it was linked to the last time that you linked, but the logging server does not keep enough days back in time. I'm under the impression that Google loses that piece of information somehow. I recently fixed an issue with our oAuth server. Perhaps that will help. As for the room, sure that would help a lot. Whenever Google will support it, we will. Benoit
  15. The maintenance is complete. Merry Christmas! Benoit
  16. Ask Alexa: "Alexa, refresh my devices" This will refresh the change from ISY Portal to Echo. Benoit
  17. Yes "Alexa scene" was a typo. I should have called it a Google scene. Google and Echo both have a device type named "scene". I call them an Alexa scene (or a Google scene in this case) to distinguish from an ISY scene. The only advantage, to my knowledge, is the ability to use a wording like "Ok google, activate <name>". Also, if you don't want the ISY scene to have a light, outlet or switch icon, then exposing it as a scene may be a good option. If your scenes are used primarily for lighting, then it's probably best to expose them as light. One of the drawbacks of exposing an ISY scene as a Google scene is that they can't be dimmed. FYI, the Echo skill already has all of that functionality. One of the goal of this update is to bring GH functionality at par with the Echo skill. Benoit
  18. Hello everyone, We will have a maintenance this Sunday 12-24-2017 at 5:00 AM PDT which will last 1 hour. During this period, your ISY will be offline for a few seconds. Changes - Google Home: Color bulb support. - Google Home: Ability to expose scenes/devices/programs a Google scenes (in addition to light/switch/outlet) - Google Home: Ability to expose devices as Light, Switch or Outlet - Google Home: Preferred ISY is no longer required if there is only one ISY in the account. - Proxy bug fixes and additional logging - Subscription servers bug fixes and additional logging When adding color bulbs, you need to add the zwave color node (ZW999_186) Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Benoit
  19. I made a fix on the 13th. I was trying to figure out if the issue started before, or after. If before, then it's good news. Benoit
  20. When did it stop working? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. I'm not seeing any approval request for a UUID ending with :67. I searched for the last 5 days. It looks like the request is not reaching ISY Portal. I would suggest to open a ticket, and please specify your UUID. I'm not sure what it could be. Michel will investigate. Thanks, Benoit
  22. I believe the limit is 5 or so. Michel could confirm. Is your UUID ending with :90? I see 5 successful linkings, but somehow, some are like 3 seconds apart. Benoit
  23. I believe you are hitting a limit on the number of approved accounts (or sub-accounts) in ISY. I investigated logs and reported the case. Benoit
  24. It’s up to you. If they start getting a few support requests on that topic, maybe this will push them to investigate further. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
