Describe the bug

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch home.nest.com

Login and password window, enter credentials. Enter a loop that never ends, always go back to home.nest.com/login. As a result it is impossible to get the token.

Include with your bug report this version info:

node --version
homebridge --version

Make sure you have the latest LTS from https://nodejs.org
and the latest packages: npm upgrade -g homebridge homebridge-nest

Also include debug log output from startup through seeing the issue:
DEBUG=* homebridge -D

I tried with clearing my cache and following the instructions, it works for a little bit but then dies:

[12/25/2024, 9:24:14 PM] [Nest] Google authentication was unsuccessful. Make sure you did not log out of your Google account after getting your googleAuth parameters. [12/25/2024, 9:24:14 PM] [Nest] Access token acquisition via googleAuth failed (code USER_LOGGED_OUT). { error: 'USER_LOGGED_OUT', detail: 'No active session found.', status: undefined }

And yes I am just closing the tab not logging out.

Sadly this was working perfectly for me but I had to move to a new server and so I needed to re-auth....

Same issue for me. Was able to successfully log in using private browsing in Safari and grabbed what I needed. Worked for a bit but then failed when restarting homebridge.

Had the same issue last night (kept looping right back to login page) - finally got it to let me in:

Go to store.google.com
Click your avatar/profile pic circle in the top right
Choose My Nest Home from the dropdown
Login to Nest via Google following the Google Cookie method

We'll see how long it lasts. It's been fine for almost 24 hours as of now.
