A workaround is to manually specific scopes. https://developers.google.com/apps-script/concepts/scopes

I have reported this to the engineering team and future updates will be shared here. Thank you for your patience.

Please Google do something with it as we all started to get full of our old/inactive/garbage 'projects'

Hi everyone, we are looking at some of the issues open from the last years and this issue came under our radar. We are working to replicate the deleted projects still persisting error and will work with the associated teams to come up with a solution.

Right now the only way to delete a project is from the Actions Console, where you go to Project Settings > General > Delete Project. It might take several days for the deleted project to propagate in all our internal systems. If you still see your deleted project after this, can you please try clearing the app cache/storage for Google Home App, and also check if your project is successfully deleted by trying to open the project overview link: https://console.actions.google.com/project/[project-id]/overview

If the issue still persists, please share your OS and Google Home App versions, as well as the project id for the deleted project.

Thanks for the examples. I will be following this up with the teams this week and will be get back once we have identified a root cause for this.

Hi,

We have followed up with the internal teams in this regard and they are still working to provide us with a solution. We appreciate your patience and once we have a solution in this regard we will update you through this ticket.

Thanks.

Hi,

We followed up with internal teams to roll out an update to fix the issue. Can you please go through Actions on Google Home Console (https://console.actions.google.com/) and make sure your project is deleted ? (It does not show up in the list of projects for the account you have there.) Additionally we have new console (https://console.home.google.com/projects) and make sure your project is deleted there as well. Can you also delete the cache and storage of the Google Home App and try logging back in and let us know if the issue still persists ?

Yes!

I can confirm also that the problem is still alive. Actions console only have my currently active and thus only one project. The new Google - Home console simply does not have anything (nor my active project which is available in Actions console). Meanwhile my Google - Home Android app shows all my old, and already deleted projects also.

Hi all,

Thank you for highlighting this issue. The issue still persists—deleted cloud-to-cloud integration projects are still listed in Google Home App > Works with Google Home > Home control list. I have escalated this to our internal team and will update this thread once a solution is available. We apologize for the inconvenience.
