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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Harvest, Google Groups, 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 Harvest and Google Groups integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Harvest and Google Groups (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Harvest and Google Groups
Harvest + Google Groups + Slack: When a new time entry is created in Harvest, the flow checks if the project's time exceeds the budget. If it does, a message is posted to a designated Google Group and a Slack message is sent to specified managers.
Google Groups + Harvest + Google Sheets: When a new message is posted in a specified Google Group, the message is recorded in a Google Sheet. Concurrently, new time entries from Harvest are also logged into the same Google Sheet for project time tracking and analysis.
