This automation scenario allows you to connect Google Calendar and Google Tasks
It can be build using Ifttt, a no-code workflow automation tool. Ifttt allows you to create automated scripts using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

Google Calendar and Google Tasks can also be integrated using automation tools other than ifttt:
When this trigger fires in Google Calendar
This Trigger fires every time a new event is added to your Google Calendar. Note: The time in the ingredient will be based on the timezone set in Google Calendar.
Then this action happens in Google Tasks
This action will add a task to the given task list.
This guide contains information on how to set up an automatic workflow that allows to Create task from new event.
Part I

Connect Google Calendar to IFTTT.
Give IFTTT access to your Google Calendar account, using Google Calendar credentials.
Connect Google Tasks to IFTTT.

Part III
Finally, we need to test this automation and publish it.
