Once you have created a smart home Action, the next step is to add functionality in your fulfillment to process the smart home intents and return responses that Google Assistant recognizes.
Identify the user
Assistant makes requests to your
smart home Action's fulfillment with the access token provided
by your OAuth 2.0 server in the Authorization
header.
POST /fulfillment HTTP/1.1 Host: smarthome.example.com Content-Type: application/json Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN
Before responding to any requests, your fulfillment logic should verify that
this token credential is valid and determine the associated user account. If
the access token is invalid, your fulfillment should return an
HTTP 401 Unauthorized
error.
List devices and their capabilities
Assistant sends an
action.devices.SYNC
intent to your
fulfillment to request the list of devices associated with the given user and
their capabilities. Your fulfillment must return a unique ID for each user in
the agentUserId
field of the SYNC
response. This ID must be an immutable
value to represent the user to your cloud service. It is not recommended to
provide email addresses or other attributes based on settings the user can
change.
The devices
field of your SYNC
response contains all of the devices the
user has authorized Assistant to access, the
types and traits they
support, and the attributes required to configure the trait's behavior for
that specific device.
The SYNC
intent is triggered during account linking or when a user
manually resyncs their devices. If the users' list of devices, supported
traits, or attribute values change, use
Request Sync to trigger a new
SYNC
intent and report the updates to Google.
