This example creates, deploys, and executes a Workflows integration that combines a deployed Cloud Function with the Wikipedia API. [00:00:01]-[00:03:07]
Key Points Covered
- Workflows is introduced as serverless orchestration for performing related tasks in a defined order. [00:00:01]-[00:01:03]
- Setup enables the Workflows API and gives a service account the Logging Logs Writer role for the sample. [00:00:01]-[00:01:03]
- The workflow gets a date from a Cloud Function, passes the weekday to Wikipedia, and returns relevant articles. [00:01:03]-[00:03:07]
- The service can connect custom services, Google Cloud services, and internet APIs. [00:02:05]-[00:03:07]
Treat the 2021 syntax, screens, sample dependencies, Cloud Functions terminology, and role assignment as historical; use current live Google Cloud Workflows documentation for procedures, authentication, retries, and failure handling.
