Gmail (Google)

Connect Gmail so Darcy Chat and AI agents can search, read, draft, and send email on your behalf

The Gmail integration lets Darcy Chat and AI agents work directly with your Google mailbox — finding messages, reading threads, drafting replies, and sending email — all through natural conversation. It's a personal, user-level connection: you sign in to Google and grant DarcyIQ access, and the connection acts on your mailbox only.

Inbox, without the busywork: Say "Find the latest email from Acme about the renewal and draft a reply confirming the call," and Darcy searches your mailbox, reads the thread, and prepares a draft for you to review.

Beta: Gmail is currently a Beta integration. In Settings → Integrations it appears under Google Workspace (the same connection also covers Google Calendar).

What You Can Do

Action	Natural Language Example	Result
Search	"Find unread emails from finance in the last week"	A list of matching messages
Read	"Read the latest message from Jane about the proposal"	The message contents, summarized
Draft	"Draft a reply thanking them and proposing Tuesday at 10am"	A saved Gmail draft to review
Send	"Send an email to [e-mail] with the agenda"	The email is sent
Send Draft	"Send that draft now"	The existing draft is delivered

Darcy understands Gmail search filters such as from:, subject:, is:unread, has:attachment, newer_than:7d, and date ranges — so you can be as specific as you like.

Darcy prefers drafts when you ask it to "draft," "write," or "compose." It only sends when you clearly ask it to send, so nothing leaves your mailbox without your say-so.

Connecting Gmail

Connecting is a one-time OAuth sign-in. DarcyIQ never sees your Google password — authentication happens on Google's own consent screen.

1

Open Integrations Go to User Configuration → Integrations.

2

Find Google Workspace Locate the Google Workspace integration (this is where Gmail lives) and click Connect.

3

Sign in to Google You're redirected to Google's sign-in and consent screen. Choose the account whose mailbox you want to use.

4

Approve the DarcyIQ connection Review the requested permissions and accept. You're returned to DarcyIQ with the integration marked Connected.

To revoke access later, disconnect the integration in DarcyIQ and/or remove DarcyIQ from your Google account's third-party access settings.

Using Gmail in Chat & Agents

Once connected, Gmail is available wherever Darcy can use tools:

• Darcy Chat — ask Darcy to find, read, draft, or send email in plain language.

• AI Agents — agents can include email steps as part of a larger task.

• AI Workflows — automate recurring email actions (for example, drafting follow-ups after a meeting).
