# Google API Source

Google API Source is a Google Cloud resource that connects external APIs or services to Google Cloud's event-driven infrastructure. It allows events from Google or third-party APIs to be delivered to Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, or other event consumers. This enables seamless integration of external systems with Google Cloud applications through standardized event delivery.
