Most powerful ways to connect Harvest and Google Cloud Firestore

Harvest + Google Cloud Firestore + Slack: When a new time entry is created in Harvest, the details are saved as a document in Google Cloud Firestore. If the total time spent on a project exceeds the budget, a message is sent to a designated Slack channel to alert the project managers.

Google Cloud Firestore + Harvest + Google Sheets: This workflow backs up data from a Firestore collection to Google Sheets. Then, it compares the Firestore data with Harvest time entries to identify discrepancies, logging these in Google Sheets.
