I’m guessing that the WWN updated overnight or sometime yesterday. Just a heads up that this broke one of my scenes because the device is different now. It includes the “Auto Away” feature on the device now. The nest away function is also missing from the house modes. I have disabled auto updates on this app as I rely on it pretty heavily and I don’t want it to break things again after unannounced update.
@Vera, are you going to add the away feature back to the house modes (Home, Away, Night, Vacation)?
Also, does this update fix the issue with the thermostat devices not updating after running fine for awhile. A Luup restart is necessary for it to start displaying the correct info again.

I second this request - since I’m already telling Vera I’m “Away”, it would be nice for the Vera to tell Nest the same thing from within the house modes panel.
How come the thermostat values do not update when temperatures in the house change? You can see in the attachment that the temperature values have not updated in 24 hours. The graph is working correctly as the outside temperature change is updating (per the Wunderground plugin device).
I see in the running applications on the VeraEdge that there is a REST connection open to Nest but the thermostat sensed temperatures are not updating. The only way I have found to get that working again is to issue a Luup restart.
On a side note, pushes for state changes TO nest are working fine. For example, setting the mode to Home or Away work.
I am having the same issue with the WWN plugin. I use changes in Nest SP to set other thermostats in the house. Now that it is furnace season again, I see the SP values from the Nest are not updating in the plugin until Luup reloads. As stated in the last post, I can make changes to the SP through the app without any problem. Has anyone seen a fix for this?
"Edit to add: I’ve also noticed (just once so far) that the curl process which streams events from Nest’s API sometimes dies, and there’s no mechanism in the plugin to restart it. I think the plugin should probably save the PID of the curl process or something and periodically restart it if it dies (or since Nest’s stream API sends keep-alives, perhaps just monitor the file and if it hasn’t changed in some time restart the curl).
Also added code which checks if there is a process running streaming and restarts streaming if it has failed for any reason."
Download the 2 files from Post #87, then upload to your Luup Files found at Apps->Develop Apps->Luup Files.
I did this a few days ago and so far I haven’t noticed that my Nest drops out anymore…hopefully that particular issue has been resolved with these updates from a fellow board member!
