1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
identifying, using login credentials received from a first computing device, multiple computing devices associated with the login credentials;
selecting, based on an automated assistant operation to be performed associated with an application and from the multiple computing devices identified using the login credentials received from the first computing device, a particular computing device of the multiple computing devices;
causing a selectable element to be displayed at a graphical user interface of the first computing device and with an icon representing the particular computing device, wherein the selectable element corresponds to the automated assistant operation and wherein the selectable element includes the icon representing the particular computing device, responsive to selecting the particular computing device;
in response to a selection of the selectable element by a user, causing, based on selecting the particular computing device, an automated assistant to:
initialize an automated assistant interface of the particular computing device;
perform the automated assistant operation at the automated assistant interface of the particular computing device;
transition to a state in which the automated assistant monitors, at the automated assistant interface of the particular computing device, for one or more spoken utterances of the user that are in response to the automated assistant operation; and
provide one or more additional selectable elements at the automated assistant interface of the particular computing device, the one or more additional selectable elements being selectable by the user to cause the automated assistant at the automated assistant interface of the particular computing device to perform one or more additional operations associated with the application.
