Blackbird Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Alexa works fine but Google cant turn on the lights

asbril Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 I have had the same experience several times over the past few days. Generally "reload" resolves the issue

I don't see that option in the ISY portal. I seem to have mis-read the previous comments. I was referring to Chrome having issues with the forum page. Next time, I should do a better job at reading comments This being said, I have 5 GH devices (as well as several Alexa), and I have no problems with the ISY connection.
LFMc Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 I had to use my GHome app to unlink my ISY and then relink it back. Of course you have to re-add all your devices back in. What a PitA. What causes this?

I get this on some google or gmail service about once per month for the last five years. Another new summer student working on his latest security idea.

Seriously, it must be something else because I don't remember ever having had this issue.
apostolakisl Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 I have this issue randomly many times over the last couple years. I have to unlink and relink ISY from Google Home on my Android phone Google "Home" app. Like others, I find it very frustrating.
larryllix Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Yup, my google calendar connection disappeared two weeks ago, and when I got it back it was inside my other gmail account somehow???. Suddenly last week, the original account connection appeared again and I had duplicate events all through my calendar, until I removed the google calendar found inside my other google account. Google plays with their security process frequently and annoys the heck out of clients with repeated logins every time some code writer thinks s/he has a better idea. Then, they try to make the client think they forgot their password, so they can get another piece of personal information each new login, from him/her.
