The Google Task Delete Task action is used to delete a single task (taskId) from a specific task list (taskListId). It allows users to remove completed or no longer necessary tasks from the list.

Technical Specifications

• Function: Deletes a single task from a specific task list.
• Parameters:
  
  • settings (Object – required): Google Tasks API connection settings.
  • taskListId (String – required): The ID of the task list containing the task to be deleted.
  • taskId (String – required): The ID of the task to be deleted.
• Result: Singular (One) → Returns a response indicating whether the deletion was successful.

Value Binding

• Fixed Value: taskListId and taskId can be entered manually.
• Dynamic Value: Can be bound by selecting from a pre-listed set of tasks.

Google Task Delete Task Application Steps

1. Open your project on the Kuika platform.
2. Go to the UI Design module.
3. Select UI Design → + ADD ACTION → Google → Google Task Delete Task.
4. Configuring Parameters:

• settings: Select the Google Tasks connection settings.
• taskListId: Enter the ID of the list where the task is located (e.g., “DailyTasks”).
• taskId: Enter the ID of the task to be deleted.

5. When the action is executed, the relevant task is permanently deleted from the list.

Usage Scenario: “Deleting a Completed Task”

If a user wants to completely remove the “Go Shopping” task from the list after completing it:

• taskListId = ‘DailyTasks’
• taskId = “Task12345”
• Action runs → Task is completely deleted from the list.

Google Task Delete Task Advanced Customizations

• Dynamic Task Selection: The task ID selected in the user interface can be automatically linked to the action.
• Bulk Deletion: The Delete Task action can be used in a loop for multiple tasks.
• Conditional Deletion: Conditions can be added so that only “completed” tasks are deleted.

Technical Risks and Controls

• taskListId and taskId cannot be empty.
• If an incorrect taskId is provided, the task cannot be found and an error is returned.
• Deleted tasks cannot be recovered → it may be useful to display a “Are you sure?” warning to the user.
• API quota limits must be taken into account.
