Not sure where to start here, but recently started having a random Google Home gremlin pop up.
I have one device (Gledopto RGB controller, connected to a LED strip) that when my daughter asks Google to turn on, gets "Cannot reach Hubitat" or "Looks like Hubitat is unavailable right now."
However, I can ask Google to turn on that light and it works fine. My daughter can ask Google to turn on other lights and those work fine. In the Google Home mobile app, she has access to all devices. It is this one device, for one person.
Any tips?
My chief suspect would be the way she is pronouncing the device’s name. May want to try changing its name or give it an alias and see if that resolves it.

I will give that a try, but the device is "Sammy's Bed Lights." It had never been a problem until I upgraded from a C5 to C7 Hubitat last week, which should have absolutely nothing to do with it.
Well color me impressed. Changed it to "ice cream" just for fun and its working fine.
Will see what happens when I change it back.
Thanks for the suggestion!

I'd leave it. I bet its more fun for your daughter.

Probably, but its a slippery slope once my son catches wind of it!
