Welcome to the Google Home Developer Center, the new destination for learning how to develop smart home actions. Note: You'll continue building actions in the Actions console.

Data payload returned with an mDNS scan result. For mDNS discovery, the scan data contains fields from the SRV and TXT records advertised by the local device via DNS-Based Service Discovery (DNS-SD).

const identifyHandler = (request: IntentFlow.IdentifyRequest):
  Promise<IntentFlow.IdentifyResponse> => {

    // Obtain scan data from protocol defined in your scan config
    const device = request.inputs[0].payload.device;
    const scanData = device.mdnsScanData;

    // TXT key/value pairs for this device
    // Extract application-specific parameters
    const localDeviceId = scanData.txt.myParameter;
    ...
  };
