Overview

Phinite’s Google Cloud predefined tool lets workspace assistants call Google Cloud APIs through DevStudio after you save a connection under Integrations → Predefined tools. Manage Google Cloud Platform resources — Compute Engine VMs, Cloud Storage buckets and objects, Cloud SQL instances, Pub/Sub topics, and Firestore documents via GCP REST APIs.
Predefined tools require a saved connection before they appear in Graph Studio’s tool picker. See Predefined Tools in GraphStudio.

​

Notes

  • Use separate connections for Dev, UAT, and Prod environments where possible
  • Test with a minimal subtool call after saving credentials
