Play a youtube video to google home

Configuration
1

Hi, I’m new to the world of home assistant and I started creating some scripts but I’m having trouble creating a script to play a youtube video on google home in order to recall it with the voice. Can you tell me the best way to do something like this?

I am with hassbian last version.

Thank you.

I am trying to do the same. But all I get is the CASTING icon on the Google Home Hub Max.
I got the same error when trying to use the Text to Speech service from google.

Any ideas… Sorry if this is a dumb question, new to Home Assistant.

Ignore the trigger.

Ok the action needed some modifcation.

action:
  - data:
      media_content_type: cast
      media_content_id: ' { "app_name": "youtube", "media_id": "6xDyPcJrl0c" }'
    service: media_player.play_media
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.kids_room_display
