    // Must reachable by Google Cloud Task. Messages are pushed to this endpoint
    taskHandlerHost: 'https://your-public-host/',
    projectId: 'your-google-project-id',
    // Region where the taskqueue should be created
    location: 'europe-west1',
    // Used to prevent unauithorized requests to your public endpoint
    authSecret: 'some-secret-to-authenticate-incoming-messages',
    /**
     *  Used to distinguish taskQueues within the same
     *  Google Project (if you have OTAP environments in the same project for example)
     *  This suffix will be appended to the queue name: "send-email-plugin-test"
     */
    queueSuffix: 'plugin-test',
    // Default amount of retries when no job.retries is given
    defaultRetries: 15,
  }),
];
  1. Start the Vendure server, log in to the admin dashboard and trigger a reindex job via Products > (cog icon) > reindex to test the Cloud Tasks Plugin.
