nest-api

API does not return anything except for metadata object


Was hoping someone could help me with this.

I've created a new "product" on developer.nest.com and gave it all available permissions with read/write access where available. My product is using code authentication, so after following all steps to get the code, it was time to make some requests.

When I got the "Exchange the authorization code for an access token" of the walkthrough, I did not get anything other than the metadata object. There was nothing about my devices or structures.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.


Solution

  • You are most likely authorizing the Works with Nest connection using a Family Account. Only the home "owner" can currently access the Nest structures and associated devices.
