Python 2.7 has reached end of support
and will be deprecated
on January 31, 2026. After deprecation, you won't be able to deploy Python 2.7
applications, even if your organization previously used an organization policy to
re-enable deployments of legacy runtimes. Your existing Python
2.7 applications will continue to run and receive traffic after their deprecation date
. We recommend that
you migrate to the latest supported version of Python
.
Creating Pull Tasks
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Once you have created a pull
queue
, you
can create tasks and add them to the queue.
First you need the name
of the queue, which is defined
in queue.yaml
.
Then you set the Task
method
to PULL
.
The following example puts tasks in a pull queue named pull-queue
:
from
google.appengine.api
import
taskqueue
q
=
taskqueue
.
Queue
(
'pull-queue'
)
tasks
=
[]
payload_str
=
'hello world'
tasks
.
append
(
taskqueue
.
Task
(
payload
=
payload_str
,
method
=
'PULL'
))
q
.
add
(
tasks
)
