You can get an API Key for the HomeGraph APIs. You make a call to their API endpoint with your API key:

https://homegraph.googleapis.com/v1/devices:requestSync?key=API_KEY

In the body, make sure you provide the agentUserId that you originally returned in your SYNC response. This will cause your endpoint to receive another SYNC call.

Here's a cURL command:

curl -i -s -k -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{agent_user_id: \"agentUserId\"}" "https://homegraph.googleapis.com/v1/devices:requestSync?key=API_KEY"
