Working with the assistant

Calendar and Gmail

Connect your own Google Calendar and Gmail so the assistant can plan your day, prepare meetings and draft email.

Google Calendar and Gmail are personal connections: after an admin installs them under Settings > Integrations, each member connects their own Google account. Nobody else in the workspace can use your account.

Calendar

The Calendar page shows your events by day, week or a 14-day agenda. Create and edit events there directly. Open an event and choose Prepare brief to have the assistant prepare a meeting brief in chat. In chat, the assistant can list your events, find free time and create, move or delete events.

Gmail

The assistant can search your mail, read threads and write drafts. Sending an email always asks for your approval first, whatever the workspace's approval policy, and emails it reads can appear as sources in answers.
