It is definitely working, but only for the persistent. I have suspected it was server load, and assume it will level off. Perhaps there are more people out there with Google type hubs.

I just tried again and was able to connect.

I hear that the action was made available worldwide! However, please note that it’s not officially supported so some international people may have more success than others.

This seems to work fine with my regular Wyze cam, but when I try to stream my pan and zoom camera to either me Google Home Hub or my Chromecast, it tells me “Sorry, I’m not sure which camera name here you’d like to turn on.”
Hmm… Do you mind telling me what name that camera has? I’m wondering if it’s getting confused with other actions.
Wesley’s Room. It’s in my son’s nursery.
Thanks! What is the command you have been using? Is it, “Hey, Google! Please show Wesley’s Room,”? Do you have any other products with similar names?
I changed the name of the camera in the Google Home app to just “Wesley” and it now streams to the Home Hub fine. I still get the same error message when trying to stream to the Chromecast hooked up to my living room TV, however.

Well, there’s some progress. I’m sorry, I don’t know what to do when some devices work and some don’t yet. You may want to contact Google support about this one.

I was able to get my devices synced with the Google Home app by linking the service, then asking google to sync my devices.
Ok Google, sync my devices.
Google home then showed the cams under my home as not assigned to a room.
Just a tip: I would avoid naming devices with an apostrophe in it (“Wesley’s room”). From my experience, and reading Google/Phillips Hue forums, Google sometimes gets confused with names with apostrophes, so maybe that’s why your name change worked. Not sure about living room tv, other than to suggest you look to see exactly how it’s named in the Google home app, and make sure you’re using that exact name.

ok I can stream my camera on chromecast but there is a huge latency of about 45 seconds. not sure if its just my case or others facing same issue.
also how do you turn off the camera as it says this mode is not available on the camera. I can turn off from the app but not from google mini.
Please support Turn On/Off the cameras through Google Home Routines & Voice Commands

You can accomplish this easily with IFTTT. Link Google Assistant as the trigger to command Wyze.
Your trigger will be a specific phrase said to Google Assistant, with the action being Wyze executing the command turn off camera x.

Same here… If anyone has a fix let us know!
Same for me… when I can get it to work, there is a 15-30 second delay before video appears, and then there is a 15-30 second lag in the video.
That is approximately the same as viewing the camera on a Fire TV with Alexa.
From what I read this is to be expected. They are working on upgrading their infrastructure to support faster speeds but they have pushed the speed as fast as their current infrastructure can support.
Anyone else had this prior to the Google Assistant integration launch and it no longer working?
I’m seeing mixed results. I have two v2 cameras. One of them will stream to my Chromecast, but the other just times out. Both cameras are working in the app on my phone.
Having said that I while ago I just retried and got the connection up to the camera that wasn’t working before, but it kept having to resync and then failed again. Even with the camera that seems to be working better the connection drops after a short time.
