I am trying to integrate Google Home with my Home Assistant system. I made a mistake an added a Matter Server to my HA, and synced it to Google. Now I have over 400 entries in Google Home. Every aspect of all my devices are now visible to GH. It's way too much. I just want to use Google for voice, so I only need to expose about 60-70 items.

I've tried deleting my home and creating a new one, but even after turning the Matter server off, when I create a new home, everything comes back. How do I 'reset' GH so I can start fresh? At this point it's easier to add in items than it is to try to remove/hide everything.

What am I missing here? I have a Google Hub that I am using to create my Matter over Thread network. I add a Matter over Thread plug to Google home, and it works fine. Then I try to add it to HA, and I can't get it to recognize. I've used the HA app on both my iphone and an android tablet, but it never seems to work using the pairing code Google Home gives me in the Matter devices integration.

Does my HA server have to have a thread radio attached in order for devices to be seen in HA?

I thought I was onto something the other day and installed the HA Matter Hub add on. I was able to create a bridge to Google home, and then share all my HA only devices to Google, but it seems like it is one way. I can't see any of the items that are only in Google Home.
