Example of Google Cloud Function (1st gen) with a data action

View summary

The following content includes an example Google Cloud Function (1st gen) and a data action that executes the function. You can add the function to your Google Cloud Platform project and import the data action into your Genesys Cloud organization for use with a Google data actions integration.

For more information, see Setup for Google Cloud Functions (1st gen).

Example Google Cloud Function (1st gen)

The following code is a Google Cloud Function (1st gen) written in JavaScript. Copy this code to create a function in your Google Cloud Platform project. Ensure that you set up your Google Cloud Platform to process functions and the functions return response is of application/json for Content-Type. For more information, see Configure Google Cloud Platform.

/**
* Responds to any HTTP request.
*
* @param {!express:Request} req HTTP request context.
* @param {!express:Response} res HTTP response context.
*/
exports.testAction = (req, res) => {
    if (req.body.inputNumber1 <=0 || req.body.inputNumber2 <= 0) {
        res.status(400).send( { error: 'Inputs must be greater than zero' } );
    } else {
        let response = createResponse(req);
        res.status(200).send(response);
    }
};
 
/**
* Responds to any HTTP request.
*
* @param {!express:Request} req HTTP request context.
*/
function createResponse(req) {
   
    var response = {};
    response.sumOfNumber1AndNumber2 = req.body.inputNumber1 + req.body.inputNumber2;
    return response;
}

Example data action

The following JSON is for a data action that executes the example function. You can download a compressed version of the JSON to import into a data action: Test-Cloud-Function data action (.zip). For more information, see Create a custom action for integrations and Import or export a data action for integrations.

The requestUrlTemplate is the Trigger URL which includes the function location (us-central1), project name (businesscallingapi) and function name (function-test-action), and is of the format https://{location-of-function}–{project-owning-function}/{function-name}. For more information, see Add configuration to custom actions for integrations.
