Google shows as connected when your AI employee already uses it
For everyone who works with an AI employee
Part of Your AI employee watches for the emails you choose
Signed in to VEP with Google as a team member? Your Google connection now shows as connected while your AI employee already works with your email and documents.
Why it matters
Team members can trust the Google status: it matches the Google sign-in their AI employee works through. They are not told to connect Google while their AI employee already works with their email and documents.
- Before
- A team member who signed in with Google could see Google as not connected, even while their AI employee was already reading their email.
- Now
- Google shows as connected when your Google sign-in lets your AI employee use your email, calendar, documents, spreadsheets and Drive files.
What you get
- A status that matches: Google shows as connected when your Google sign-in covers email, calendar events, documents, spreadsheets and Drive files.
- For team members and admins: team members see this status since 22 October, and company admins see the same status for each AI employee since 28 October.
- If it still says not connected: your sign-in lacks something your AI employee needs, so connect Google again and allow everything Google asks for.
- Email watching can need more: watching your inbox as emails arrive needs full email access. If your sign-in lacks it, you are told once, in plain words, how to allow it.
How to use it
Nothing to switch on: team members who signed in to VEP with Google see it in their settings, under Integrations, at Google Workspace.
Part of: Your AI employee watches for the emails you choose
Connect your Gmail, then name the people, clients or shared addresses that matter. Each matching email reaches your chat within minutes, handled your way.
