How to connect Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Cloud Pub\Sub, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Cloud Pub\Sub or Google tasks will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud Pub\Sub or Google tasks, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Cloud Pub\Sub Node
Select the Google Cloud Pub\Sub node from the app selection panel on the right.

Now, click the Google tasks node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Google tasks settings. Authentication allows you to use Google tasks through Latenode.
Configure the Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Cloud Pub\Sub, Google tasks, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Cloud Pub\Sub and Google tasks
Google Cloud Pub/Sub + Google Tasks + Slack: When a new message is received in Google Cloud Pub/Sub, a new task is created in Google Tasks. Then, a message is sent to a Slack channel to notify the team about the new task.
Google Tasks + Google Cloud Pub/Sub + Google Sheets: When a task is completed in Google Tasks, a message is published to a Google Cloud Pub/Sub topic. This message is then used to add a new row to a Google Sheet, tracking the completed task.
