Create Google Task List

See more Google Tasks Examples

Demonstrates how to create a new task list. Rust

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// Get the previously obtained access token.
// See Get Google Tasks Access Token.

let fac = chilkat::FileAccess::new();
let Ok(access_token) = fac.read_entire_text_file("qa_data/tokens/googleTasks.txt", "utf-8") else {
    println!("{}", fac.last_error_text());
    return;
};

let http = chilkat::Http::new();

http.set_auth_token(&access_token);

// Create a task list named "aaa"
let json = chilkat::JsonObject::new();
let _ = json.update_string("title", "aaa").is_ok();

let resp = chilkat::HttpResponse::new();
if http.http_json("POST", "https://www.googleapis.com/tasks/v1/users/@me/lists", &json, "application/json", &resp).is_err() {
    println!("{}", http.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Show the response body.
println!("{}", resp.body_str());

// Examine the response status code.
println!("response status code: {}", resp.status_code());

// Sample response:
