How to connect Harvest and Google Vertex AI
Create a New Scenario to Connect Harvest and Google Vertex AI
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 Vertex AI will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Harvest or Google Vertex AI, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Harvest Node
Select the Harvest node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Harvest, Google Vertex AI, 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 Vertex AI integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Harvest and Google Vertex AI (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 Vertex AI
Harvest + Google Vertex AI + Slack: When a new time entry is created in Harvest, the description is analyzed by Google Vertex AI for anomalies. If anomalies are detected, a message is sent to a Slack channel to notify managers.
Harvest + Google Vertex AI + Google Sheets: When a new time entry is created in Harvest, Google Vertex AI categorizes the time entry based on the description. The categorized time entry is then logged in Google Sheets for reporting and analysis.
