I'm looking for a way to send HTTP request to specific URL and integrate that with Google Assistant. So when I say "Ok Google, turn on the lights" it will trigger some kind of custom action that will take care of the rest. My initial idea is to utilize the HTTP Shortcuts app, and I was able to create shortcut in Launcher (Samsung Galaxy S24U) which works perfectly fine when opened manually. Then I tried to run it with Google Assistant by defining custom routine with action, but it doesn't seem to work (nothing happens). I tried to define actions such as: - Open the "Turn on the lights" shortcut in "HTTP Shortcuts" app - open http-shortcuts://aaaa-bbbb-ccc It recognizes my command, but doesn't run the shortcut at all, like it doesn't understand how to run it. How to configure Google Assistant to perform such task? I don't want to use 3rd party solutions like IFTTT.
