I'm looking for a way to integrate the Google Assistant into my chatbot and be able to get answers to general questions like "whats the weather?", "how tall is X?", "what does X mean?" etc. (just how Google Home works). Ideally this would be over a REST API and I'd get the response back inside of a JSON payload.

I looked through the Google Assistant SDK docs but it wasn't clear on how I could host/build an API that does this. Any ideas on if something like this already exists?

Yes, you use the Google Assistant SDK.

There isn't a REST API, since other requirements for the SDK are poorly suited for REST. Instead it uses gRPC, which lets them publish a standard interface and lets you compile this interface to local language bindings.

IF you are using Python, C++, or Node.js, there are already libraries available which allow you to skip the gRPC setup yourself.
