Gemini tutorial

Connect Gemini to Workspace for faster catch-up

If your work already lives in Gmail, Docs, Drive and Calendar, Gemini becomes more useful when it can work with that context.

The situation

You need to catch up, but the answer is spread across email, docs, tasks and calendar events. Switching between apps costs time before the real work starts.

Try this

  1. Use the same Google account for Gemini and Workspace.
  2. Connect the Google Workspace app in Gemini Apps where available.
  3. Ask for one focused result, such as open actions from recent emails.
  4. Check the source items before acting.

Prompt

"Look for the work items I need to handle today. Group them into urgent, waiting and can wait. Include the source app for each item."

Make it easier

Ask Gemini to name where each item came from. That makes the output easier to verify and easier to reopen later.

Check before relying on it

Availability depends on account type, plan, language, connected apps and Workspace settings.
