1. A method implemented by one or more processors, the method comprising:
receiving, at a client device, a temporary beacon signal, wherein the temporary beacon signal is broadcasted, via a wireless connection, by a smart device to be configured by a user, and wherein the client device is associated with an account of the user;
determining whether the smart device is associated with the account of the user, wherein determining whether the smart device is associated with the account of the user is based on an indication the user has purchased the smart device;
in response to determining the smart device is associated with the account of the user:
transmitting, to the smart device, account data associated with the user, wherein the account data identifies one or more other devices associated with the user as being capable of assisting the user in the installation of the smart device;
determining one or more instructions for configuring the smart device, based on at least the account data associated with the user, wherein the one or more instructions are tailored based on one or more applications available to one or more of the other devices; and
causing an automated assistant application to render, at the client device, output that is based on the one or more instructions, for configuring the smart device, that are determined based on at least the account data associated with the user.
