Google Workspace Tools

Connect Google OAuth and let agents use Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Meet, Tasks, and Contacts tools.

Google Workspace tools let the agent work with Google services after you connect OAuth credentials. The app exposes these capabilities through MCP tools, filtered by the scopes you grant.

Connect Google

Open Settings
Go to the connector or MCP area for Google services
Start the Google OAuth flow
Sign in with the Google account you want the agent to use
Review requested scopes
Approve only the permissions you need

If you deny a scope, tools that require that scope will not be available.

Available Tool Areas

When connected, Google services can expose tools for:

Service	Agent Capabilities
Gmail	Search, read, draft, send, label, and manage messages
Calendar	List events, create events, update schedules
Drive	Search files, upload, download, and organize documents
Docs	Read or update documents when permissions allow
Sheets	Read and write spreadsheet data
Slides	Create or update presentation content
Meet	Help schedule or manage meeting links
Tasks	Create and manage task lists
Contacts	Search contact information

Exact tool availability depends on current app configuration and granted scopes.

Use Google Tools in a Task

Write requests that name the target service and outcome:

"Search Gmail for customer replies about the launch delay and summarize blockers."
"Create a Calendar hold for the design review next Thursday afternoon."
"Find the latest Drive brief for the campaign and draft a task plan."
"Update the launch checklist Sheet with the completed media items."

For sensitive actions such as sending email or modifying shared documents, use approvals or ask the agent to draft first.

Security Guidance

Use the least-permissive OAuth scopes that still support your workflow
Connect a work account only when the workspace is appropriate for work data
Review generated email or document edits before sending or applying them
Revoke Google credentials from Settings when a workspace no longer needs them
Avoid attaching private Google files to channels where the audience should not see them

Troubleshooting

If a Google tool is missing, reconnect with the required scope
If a request fails with permission denied, verify file sharing and OAuth access
If search results are stale, ask the agent to rerun the search
If a token expires, reconnect the Google account
If the wrong account is connected, revoke it and run the OAuth flow again
