Notes

The Nest Polyglot polls the Nest API every 30 seconds due to Nest anti-flooding mechanisms that temporarily disable queries to the API. So if anything is updated outside of ISY it could take up to 30 seconds to be reflected in the ISY interface.

Nest only updates the structure api every 600 seconds (5 minutes). This only affects AWAY state so if your device is set away or returned from away it will take up to 5 minutes to reflect in your ISY node.
