Connecting Java standalone server to Nest cloud via Firebase-Api

I would like to connect a Java application to the Nest-Cloud via the Firebase-Api. The application is as simple as reading the setpoint of a nest thermostat.

I spent a lot of time on developer.nest.com and firebase.com to find the required information, but failed.

  1. What is actually the base url, where the firebase is located? seems not to be home.nest.com

  2. How can I authenticate without user interaction? I tried FirebaseSimpleLogin, but the implementation depens on Android, which is not my platform.

Thanks for your help.

For 1) I don't know for sure, but have you tried https://api.home.nest.com and https://developer-api.nest.com?

2) The user has to authenticate and allow the client you're developing at least once. You'll need to get an authorization code, which you get from the client page on the Nest developer site. The code is six characters I think, and you'll have to include that in your code or assign to a variable and call it.

Take a look at another entry I made. If nothing else, it might help you get a little farther down your rabbit trail.
