The Google Tasks integration lets Helpers manage your tasks directly from chat. Once connected, Helpers can access your Google Tasks account and work with the two core elements - tasks and task lists - without leaving the conversation.
Helpers operate based on the details you provide in your prompts and perform actions only within the permissions granted through your Google account.

With Google Tasks integration, Helpers can’t:
Create custom automations or workflow rules
Set up automation-style recurring routines (for example, “create this task every Monday” as an automated system)
Combine Google Tasks actions with other Sintra features in one connected workflow (for example, content creation, website publishing, or social media tools)
Provide advanced error handling
Send custom notifications inside Sintra for Google Tasks events
These actions have to be done manually in Google Tasks.

Working with tasks and task lists
Google Tasks is built around two core elements: tasks and task lists. Tasks represent individual to-dos, while task lists help group-related tasks together.
Once the Google Tasks integration is connected, Helpers can manage tasks and task lists directly from chat using simple, clear prompts to:
Create Task
Update Task
List Tasks
Delete Task
Create Task List
Update Task List
List Task Lists
Delete Task List.

Creating a task (Create Task)
To create a task, simply describe what needs to be done. You can also include extra details, such as a due date or a task list. If any information is missing, the Helper will use Google Tasks’ default settings.
Helpers can create tasks with:
a task title
a due date
Description
Prompt example:
Create a task in Google Tasks with the following details: Title: [Paste your title here] Description: [Paste your description here], Due date: [Paste your due date here]

Updating a task (Update Task)
Once tasks are created, Helpers can update them when details change. This includes updating the task title, adjusting the due date, or editing the description. To avoid confusion when you have similar task names, it helps to mention the task list as well.
The following information can be used when updating a task:
Task title:
Identifies which task should be updated.
Task list (optional):
Helps locate the correct task if you use multiple lists or have similar task names.
Updated fields:
Specify what should change, such as a new title, updated due date, or updated description.
If optional details are not provided, the Helper updates the most relevant matching task based on the information available.
Prompt example (simple):
Update the task : [Paste your task name here] and change the due date to [Paste your new due date here]
Example message (detailed):
Update the task: [Paste your task name here] list: [Paste your list name here] the due date to [Paste your new due date here] and update the description to [ [Paste your new description here]

Final notes:
The Google Tasks integration lets Helpers turn simple chat requests into real actions inside Google Tasks - creating tasks, updating details, listing what’s pending, and keeping your task lists organized without switching tools. For the smoothest experience, include the task list name when relevant and be specific about what you want changed. If anything looks unclear, Helpers can confirm what was created or updated and point you to the exact task list so your workflow stays transparent and easy to control.
