Download this manual as a PDF file 

This section describes how you can use the "Google Cloud Platform" SyncPack to automatically synchronize Google Cloud tasks, errors, and messages with Skylar One events.

This SyncPack uses the "Google Cloud Platform Automations" PowerPack.

What Can I Do with this SyncPack?

The "Google Cloud Platform" SyncPack lets you sync Google Cloud tasks, errors, and messages and Skylar One events between your Google Cloud Platform and Skylar One systems.

With this SyncPack, any status changes made to a Skylar One event is sent to the Google Cloud Platform to update the corresponding task, error, or message. Any status changes to the Google Cloud Platform task or error are synchronized back to the corresponding Skylar One event.

This SyncPack includes the following applications:

  • Close Skylar One Event Delete GCP Task. This application resolves Google Cloud Platform tasks that were resolved by corresponding Skylar One events.
  • Resolve GCP Event From Skylar One. This application resolves Skylar One events that were resolved by corresponding Google Cloud Platform events.
  • Send Skylar One Event To GCP Build . This application collects event information from Skylar One and creates an event in Google Cloud Platform.
  • Send Skylar One Event To GCP Error . This application collects event information from Skylar One and creates an error in Google Cloud Platform.
  • Send Skylar One Event To GCP Task . This application collects event information from Skylar One and creates a task in Google Cloud Platform.
  • Send Skylar One Event To GCP Pubsub. This application collects event information from Skylar One and creates a message in Google Cloud Platform Pub/Sub.

For more information about how to configure these applications, see Configuring Applications for the Google Cloud Platform Synchronization PowerPack.
