What’s changing

Earlier this year, we launched Google Workspace apps (formerly known as "extensions") in Gemini in open beta. When enabled, Gemini can reference and incorporate data from these apps to generate even more informed and relevant responses, bringing Gemini’s capabilities more seamlessly into your daily workflows, helping enhance productivity. Workspace apps are available for:

• Calendar
• Docs
• Drive
• Gmail
• Keep
• Tasks

Beginning today, we’re pleased to announce that extensions for these apps are now generally available.

Why you’d use them

When enabled, Gemini can interact with other Google apps and services to provide more contextual and relevant responses to your prompts and take certain actions across apps. For example, you can:

• Gmail: ask what dates were proposed in the email about the team offsite.
• Drive: find the document about the website clean-up project and summarize the proposal in a few bullet points.
• Docs: reference a Doc that outlines your target audiences while performing customer research in parallel. 
• Calendar: create an event based on specific details or based on the conversation with the Gemini app, find events for a specific day or date range, modify events in Calendar.
• Tasks: add reminders and tasks, including those based on your conversations with Gemini, or view and update a list of your tasks.
• Keep: create notes and lists, add items to an existing list, find content from your notes and lists, and reference your notes and lists in conversion with Gemini.
