Google Tasks ACTION

Move Task

Moves an existing task to a different position, parent task, or task list. Use this action to reorganize your task hierarchy or reorder tasks without modifying the task's title, notes, due date, or completion status. To update those properties, use the Update Task action instead. See the documentation

IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Google Tasks account once, then configure and run Move Task from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "google_tasks-move-task",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    google_tasks: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    taskListId: "Task List",
    taskId: "Task",
  },
})

console.log(result)
