How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate AWS Lambda with Google Chat - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.
Choose a trigger
A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Function" from AWS Lambda.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "Create Message" in Google Chat.
You’re connected!
Zapier seamlessly connects AWS Lambda and Google Chat, automating your workflow.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.

Frequently Asked Questions about AWS Lambda + Google Chat integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with AWS Lambda and Google Chat
How can I trigger an AWS Lambda function from Google Chat?
You can trigger an AWS Lambda function from Google Chat by setting up a Google Chat bot that sends a request to the AWS API Gateway when specific commands are received. The API Gateway will then invoke the Lambda function, passing along necessary parameters.
What permissions are required for AWS Lambda to communicate with Google Chat?
AWS Lambda itself does not directly communicate with Google Chat. Instead, communication is facilitated through an intermediary such as the AWS API Gateway. You will need permissions to create and manage API endpoints in API Gateway and adequate IAM roles for invoking Lambda functions from these endpoints.
Can I send messages back to Google Chat from an AWS Lambda function?
Yes, you can configure your AWS Lambda function to send messages back to Google Chat using incoming webhooks. When your function finishes processing an event, it can send a POST request with the desired message payload to a pre-configured webhook URL for your Google Chat space.
How do I handle authentication between AWS services and Google Chat?
Handling authentication involves ensuring secure interactions between systems. For triggering actions via HTTP requests between AWS services and Google Chat, you would typically use OAuth2 credentials on the Google side and IAM roles/policies, API keys, or custom authorizers on the AWS side.
Are there limits on data transfer between AWS Lambda functions and Google Chat?
There aren't strict data transfer limits specific to sending data from AWS Lambda to Google Chat using webhooks. However, keep in mind that both systems might have their own payload size limits – 6 MB for synchronous invocation requests in Lambda and message length limitations in Google Chat.
How can error handling be implemented when integrating these services?
We recommend integrating logging into your setup by sending log data from your AWS Lambda functions to CloudWatch. Additionally, you could set up monitoring alerts or retries through code logic or via third-party tools like Zapier if you experience failures connecting through webhooks.
Is it possible to automate workflows between multiple chat platforms including Slack alongside this integration?
Yes, it is possible! While setting up integrations between different chat platforms like Slack or Microsoft Teams alongside this setup using third-party services such as Zapier would bring flexibility in creating automated workflows that encompass various communication tools harmoniously.
