Extension summary

Chrome extension that relays your Google Meet status (in meeting or not) to Home Assistant so you can build your own DIY "On Air" light or other automations.

It works by detecting whether you have any active meetings open in any Chrome tabs, and then toggles an Input Boolean in Home Assistant accordingly which you can use to create automations from.

See https://github.com/colinodell/google-meet-hass-extension#configuration for additional setup instructions.

User reviews

The plugin works but the documentation and onboarding could be improved. Eg. "No trailing slash": why not automatically removing it when detected? A troubleshooting section would be great. Also, the plugin requires the "Site access" permission for every sites: why? At first I thought it was to detect Google Meet pages, but it is not that: limiting the access to "homeassistant.local:8123" is enough to make it works. But even for this one I don't get it, why a simple API call isn't enough?
