# Google Assistant

{% hint style="info" %}
If you already have the *Google Home* app installed and are logged in with a *Google* account, you can click [here](https://madeby.google.com/home-app/?deeplink=setup/ha_linking?agent_id=chiarini-home) to configure the *action* directly.

Connecting Google Assistant to your system is quite simple and requires the following steps:

* Install the **Google Home** app
* Create a Google account or log in if you already have one
* In the Google Home app, go to **Settings** and access the **Google Assistant** section
* Click on **Manage all Assistant settings**, then click on **Home Control**
* Press the search button and type "Chiarini", then click on the *action* found
* To configure the action, you must log in using your home automation system credentials

Once these steps are completed, the device search will begin; this search takes place through the cloud, so you can configure it from any network.

The devices found will be added automatically.

{% hint style="info" %}
To simplify interaction, we recommend creating *Rooms* and *Routines*.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If changes are made to Shortcuts or devices (e.g., new elements, name changes, etc.), you need to restart the search by saying: *Hey Google, sync devices*.
