For a while, you could pull that data through a private JSON API, the same one the iPhone app used. I'm assuming something changed a few months ago though, because the application I wrote to chart out that information stopped receiving those data points. This was probably part of the transition to a public API.
Using the API, I was able to see that running just the fan in my house didn't appear to do anything for the temperature of the house, despite the temperature difference between the two floors. It was interesting charting internal temperature against outdoor temperature as well, giving me a visual reference on the efficiency of the system.

- Karunamon 12y agoI wonder if the privacy "advocates" (and I really want to use the word "whiners" here) are to blame for that particular restriction. I can't see a business case for Nest to disallow that.
