Google Home and automation, is IFTTT the solution?

Hi! So I got Google Home and Logitech Harmony, they do talk together, but with the “Ask Harmony to turn on ___” which I think is a bit inconvenient.

So after testing with IFTTT, I found it to be very simple and responsive, an the commands can be “TV off”.

Is this the currently best way to use Harmony with Google Home?

The only downside is that I’ve been bothered with some random on/off stuff, not exactly sure why. Might need to change the commands a bit.

Btw, is it possible to receive sensor information from Home Assistant? Either directly or through IFTTT?

“Hey Google, what’s the temperature in the large bedroom?”
“The temperature in the large bedroom is ‘X’ and the humidity is ‘Y’”

Can this be done?
