How does Gmail + Claude integration work?+
We map a verified event from Gmail to the intended record or action in Claude. The exact connector, permissions, and available fields are confirmed in your accounts before a build.
Can Claude read my entire Gmail account?+
Access should be restricted to the specific mailbox, labels, and scopes approved for the workflow.
What happens if an event or update fails?+
We test missing fields, duplicates, permissions, and retries. Failed events should be logged and sent to an owner for manual review instead of silently disappearing.
