How to connect Google Cloud Storage and GoCanvas
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud Storage and GoCanvas
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 Storage, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Cloud Storage or GoCanvas will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud Storage or GoCanvas, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Cloud Storage Node
Select the Google Cloud Storage node from the app selection panel on the right.

Configure the Google Cloud Storage
Click on the Google Cloud Storage node to configure it. You can modify the Google Cloud Storage URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the GoCanvas Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Google Cloud Storage node, select GoCanvas from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within GoCanvas.

Authenticate GoCanvas
Now, click the GoCanvas node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your GoCanvas settings. Authentication allows you to use GoCanvas through Latenode.
Configure the Google Cloud Storage and GoCanvas 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 Storage and GoCanvas 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 Storage, GoCanvas, 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 Storage and GoCanvas integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Storage and GoCanvas (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 Storage and GoCanvas
GoCanvas + Google Cloud Storage + Google Sheets: When a new submission is received in GoCanvas, the submission data is archived to Google Cloud Storage as a file. Then, key details from the submission, such as submission ID and form name, are logged in a Google Sheet for reporting purposes.
GoCanvas + Google Cloud Storage + Slack: When a new submission is received in GoCanvas, if the submission meets specific criteria indicating a critical inspection failure, the submission data is archived to Google Cloud Storage as a file. Supervisors are then alerted via a Slack message with details about the failed inspection and a link to the archived file.
