Unable to set up google assistant

Trying to set up Google Assistant and I am getting an endless loop trying to authenticate.

I’ve reviewed all the related topics, the only answer I’ve seen relating to my issue is a service outage, which there isn’t anything noted on the status page.

running iOS 13
updated app versions
cleared all browser history and cache
removed all music services from sonos
removed all but my primary google accounts
deleted both sonos and GA and reinstalled
rebooted

pretty frustrated, just had set up issues with Spotify just two days ago and was beyond straight forward. Setting up services shouldn’t take hours.

any suggestions?

I’m having the same problem and it’s driving me crazy.  I might have to return this.  Can’t find updates or solutions.

As others have said, I couldn’t add Google as a voice assistant via the Sonos app, it started the setup process and then just took me to a Sonos 404 web page.

 

I just used the Google Home app/ Add Device ( + icon top left ) and then add Sonos from there.

setting up Alexa from within the Sonos app worked fine.
