In the third Beginner’s Guide I showed you how to enable the Homegraph API to allow the Google Assistant to sync devices with Home Assistant. Today I’ll be showing you a few lines of code that will sync the two platforms every time you reboot your Home Assistant. As a tinkerer’s tool, you will be rebooting very often, so it’s quite handy to use this automation. Just add these lines (no adjustments needed) to your automations.yaml:

- alias: 'Update Google Assistant on start of Home Assistant'
trigger:
platform: homeassistant
event: start
action:
service: google_assistant.request_sync
That’s all.
