Connected Drive + Google

Was told at the dealership I could connect my BMW to the Google Assistant so I could ask my Google Home about fuel range and so on. It even shows it as a option on the website. I called BMW and they verified the feature but said they do not help support or troubleshoot these features.

I can not find the option to link my BMW account to my Google account. I followed the directions on the BMW website to connect it but no dice. Has anyone successfully set this up? Not sure that it matters but I have a 2020 X3 M40i

Even if it is a feature, I'd be surprised if it even works. I mean they can't even get the connected drive app to work on the phone...
