Of course, ​@artistformallyknownasmayor! Your vote has been added and we’ll be sure to send you an email notification once it’s implemented. 

Thanks for everyone’s continued patience in the meantime—really appreciate it! 🧡

please keep me in the loop when this is worked out. A big deal for our organization. 

Happy to help, ​@SamB . I hope they’ll be able to add this change to their surely long backlog and have this issue fixed. 

Hi ​@CesarCamargo and ​@gwvas! 

Thank you both for reaching out here. I’ve added your votes to the feature request now. 

​@CesarCamargo - apologies for the delay in responding. Thanks so much for all your work in researching that and sharing your findings here, it’s very much appreciated! I’ve passed this information over to our engineers so they can look into getting that header added to the request.

I can’t make any promises around when you can expect it to be done by, but I’ll be sure to follow up here once it’s sorted and you’ll both get an automatic email notification from us once the open feature request has been closed.

@SamB Another request for the same thing! Pulling tasks of google docs would be incredibly useful.

Hello @SamB . I’ve done some quick research on this topic and found out where the problem is and how it should be fixed. Google Task API ( /tasks/v1/lists/), used to fetch tasks, supports a parameter called “showAssigned” that filters the tasks assigned with a default value of “False” which means assigned tasks won’t be fetched.

Tasks created from Google Docs are assigned by default, so the current GTask Zap implementation does not list them. 

Fixing the issue is incredible as simple as follows:

• Adding the header “showAssigned=true” to the HTTP request

I’ve performed some tests in the Google OAuth playground, and the results are satisfactory. Below is the original post from the official Google Task issue tracker I have based on.

Implementing this solution should be very straightforward. Please let me know if there is any way I can help.

Sure thing, @shereeyoung! I’ve added your vote now, so you’ll get an email notification from us when/if it’s added. 

Please add my vote to have this implemented. I use ToDoist and need all my Google tasks to import automatically. Thanks!

Thanks for reaching out here, @jay777!

I’ve added your vote that feature request as well so we can notify you once it’s sorted. I can’t give any estimates as to when it might be added but once it is that should help to get the tasks completed via Google Docs triggering your Zaps. 

Subject: Issue with Google Tasks Integration – Tasks from Google Docs Not Syncing

Dear Zapier Support Team,

I’m experiencing an issue with the Google Tasks integration, where tasks created or edited within Google Docs (via the task checkmark feature) are not being detected by Zapier. Tasks created through Gmail or the Google Tasks app are syncing perfectly, but the ones from Google Docs seem to be missed.

I’ve ensured that all permissions and settings are enabled on both Google and Zapier's side, but the issue persists. Could this be a gap in the API, or is there a specific limitation with how tasks from Google Docs are handled in the Zapier integration?

Any guidance or update would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your support!

You got it @treana! I’ve added your vote to that feature request so you’ll receive an email notification from us once it’s been rolled out.  

Please add my vote to have this implemented. I create project plans and action items from client updates in Google Docs so this would be very helpful. 

I’ve just checked on the feature request @Liz123456 and there’s no updates at present. Sorry to not have better news at this time. I can’t give any estimate as to when it might be implemented by but I’ve added your vote to it which will help to bump up it’s priority.

Any update on this? I’m still trying to make this work!

Hi @EllaElevates,

I’ve added your vote for this feature request, and we’ll notify you via email once an update is readily available. Thanks.

Hey there! Asking for an update and/or to add my vote for this feature.  It really does render the Zap kinda useless if you can’t rely on it to accurately reflect all the tasks that show up on your Google Tasks lists, regardless of how they got there.  Any update on this would be very much appreciated! Thx. 

Hi there, @wkoszek 

We can’t provide any sort of ETA on when you might expect this to be implemented by. But I’ve added you to the list of folks being interested in this which will help to increase it’s priority. You’ll get an email notification from us once it’s added. And I’ll be sure to follow up here with any updates we have on the status of this feature request.

There’s no reported workarounds but if you’re able to have Google Tasks send an email notification with details of new tasks that are added then, perhaps you could use an email parsing app like Email Parser by Zapier. In your email account you’d set up those email notifications to be automatically forwarded to an email parser mailbox. Then you could have a Zap trigger from those emails instead. You can find out more about how to use Email Parser here: Trigger Zaps from new parsed emails

Hope that helps! 

@ken.a Is there an ETA for fixing this? We want to sync to Todoist, and it doesn’t work either.

Hi @a5huto5h,

I have added you to the list of interested members. We will keep you in the loop via email once the feature has been implemented.

Thanks!

Hey, please add me to the list as well. :) 

Hi @sgrove-mll, @Bhoebe, @Iris34, @KrisB and @lorynf - so sorry we missed your messages here previously!

I’ve checked on the feature request and it’s still not been implemented unfortunately. We don’t have any ETA I can share on when you can expect this to be resolved by but everyone here has had their votes added, so we’ll definitely be in touch as soon as it is. Thanks for everyone’s continued patience on this in the meantime. 

Hello - I am encountering a similar issue - is this still in the queue or scheduled to get resolved any time soon? @SamB 

Is this conected to that if I assign a google space tasks (created from Google chat) to me it is not registrering trigger?

The task appears as a new task in my “My tasks” list when it is assign to me, but dose not trigger a zap.

Tasks created from direct messages work fine.

I would also like to be notified on any updates on this, thanks!

Please notify me too!
