I'm following thist tutorial : <https://cloud.google.com/tasks/docs/tutorial-gcf>

To create a Task that would call a cloud function.

I've done quite some tries and still get this error:

[![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/YLBek.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/YLBek.png)

If I change the body encoding to something else, I get another error about serialisation method.

It's likely not a permission issues, as I got some before and got rid of it.

The object which is pass to the createTask() is the following :

```
task: {
  httpRequest: {
    url: "https://europe-west1-project_id.cloudfunctions.net/FunctionName"
    httpMethod: "POST"
    oidcToken: {
      serviceAccountEmail: "cf-targetFunctionSA@project_id.gserviceaccount.com"
    }
  body: ""
  headers: {
    Content-Type: "application/json"
  }
}

```

(or with body: base64 encoded json string.)

The code I use is the following :

```
'use strict';
const common            = require('./common');
const {v2beta3}         = require('@google-cloud/tasks');
const cloudTasksClient  = new v2beta3.CloudTasksClient();

let projectName = common.getProjectName();
let location    = "europe-west3";
let queue       = "compute-stats-on-mysql";
const parent    = cloudTasksClient.queuePath(projectName, location, queue);

async function createTask(url, serviceAccount, data)
{
  const dataBuffer  = Buffer.from(JSON.stringify(data)).toString('base64');
  const task = {
    httpRequest: {
      httpMethod: 'POST',
      url:url,
      oidcToken: {
        serviceAccountEmail: serviceAccount,
      },
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
      body:dataBuffer,
    },
  };

  try
  {
    // Send create task request.
    common.logDebug(`Before creating task`, {parent:parent,task:task, data:data});
    const [response] = await cloudTasksClient.createTask({parent, task});
    common.logDebug(`Created task ${response.name}`, {parent:parent,task:task, response:response, data:data});
    return response;
  }
  catch (error)
  {
    // Construct error for Stackdriver Error Reporting
    console.error("error while creating tasks",error);
  }
}

module.exports = {
  createTask : createTask,
  cloudTasksClient:cloudTasksClient
};

```

The lack of details in the error makes me hit a wall blind...

Any suggestions ?
