Hi!
It is not possible to create scheduled task with gmsa via GUI, because account password should be entered and I suppose you don't know this password).

To create task with MSA you should:
First, you should create task with any regular user (it is temporally)

Then, you should change this task via PowerShell to set gmsa account in to this task. To do so, read this for example.
