One more question

With skyconnect will the zigbee devices also be accessible from Google home?

If not, there another solution where I can add zigbee and have it work with both Google and home assistant?

Not directly, you have to install the Google Assistant integration. All your HA devices (not just Zigbee) can be made available to Google Home that way. I have Zigbee, Wi-Fi and RF433Mhz devices in Google Home.

Not if you use the manual setup
