Hi guys, I've just taken delivery of a Sony Bravia 4K and I have harmony remote and I've linked an activity to launch Netflix. Can I do the same to launch 4K YouTube?

Are you using a harmony hub or just
I managed this (similar) on my old Shield TV with a harmony hub but haven't set it up on my new one yet (got a 2017).
The reason you could do it with netflix is that tv mfgrs have deals with Netflix to provide a button on their oem remotes so Sony had to bake in support for that in their Android TV OS version.
To do it for other apps, use an app called Multilanguage Keyboard Redefiner on your TV. Configure it launch an app on a certain key press.
Then add a new device to your Harmony, a generic Windows PC. Then when harmony asks you to pair the Bluetooth keyboard to you PC, go to your TV's Bluetooth settings and pair to the harmony keyboard.
Now in your Harmony settings add the windows pc to your activity and configure the button you want to use for launching YouTube to press the key you set up as your shortcut in MKR.
