How to connect Google Cloud Storage and Google Chat
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud Storage and Google Chat
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 Google Chat will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud Storage or Google Chat, 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.

Set Up the Google Cloud Storage and Google Chat 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, Google Chat, 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 Google Chat integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Storage and Google Chat (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 Google Chat
Google Cloud Storage + Google Docs + Google Chat: When a new file is uploaded to Google Cloud Storage, a new Google Docs document is created from the text content of the file. A message with a link to the document is then sent to a specified Google Chat space.
Google Chat + Google Cloud Storage + Slack: When a new message is posted in Google Chat, the attachments from that message are uploaded to a specified Google Cloud Storage bucket. A notification is then sent to a designated Slack channel with information about the uploaded files.
