    Google Tasks spoke account requirements

    The Google Tasks spoke requires a custom app that you create in the Google Developers Console.

    Connection and credential alias requirements

    Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information, and OAuth credentials. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection.

    For information about setting up the spoke, see Set up Google Tasks spoke.

    MID Server requirements

    These actions use REST calls that can run either on an instance or, optionally, through a MID Server. Use the connection record associated with the Google Tasks alias to configure where actions run and, if needed, specify MID Server selection attributes. For more information, see MID server.

    To set up the MID Server for this spoke, see Set up MID Server for a spoke.
