Creating Pull Tasks

Once you have created a pull queue, you can create tasks and add them to the queue.

This API is supported for first-generation runtimes and can be used when upgrading to corresponding second-generation runtimes. If you are updating to the App Engine Go 1.12+ runtime, refer to the migration guide to learn about your migration options for legacy bundled services.

First you need the name of the queue, which is defined in queue.yaml. Then you set Method to PULL. The following example puts tasks in a pull queue named pull-queue:

t := &taskqueue.Task{
	Payload: []byte("hello world"),
	Method:  "PULL",
}
_, err := taskqueue.Add(ctx, t, "pull-queue")
