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

Set Up the Google tasks and Podio 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 tasks, Podio, 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 tasks and Podio integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google tasks and Podio (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google tasks and Podio
Google Tasks + Podio + Slack: When a task is completed in Google Tasks, create a comment in a specified Podio item and send a message to a Slack channel.
Podio + Google Tasks + Google Calendar: When a new item is created in Podio, create a corresponding task in Google Tasks and schedule an event in Google Calendar.
