Connect Google Workspace to Jola

Gmail, Calendar, Drive and Contacts, plus send email, add events, Docs and Sheet rows.

Connect

Owners and admins: in Jola, open Connectors, pick Google Workspace, and follow one of these.

Sign in with Google

1. Sign in with the Google account to bring in (work or personal).
2. Allow Jola to read Gmail, Calendar, Drive and Contacts, and to send email, add events, and create Docs and Sheet rows you ask for.

• Until Google verifies Jola, only accounts added as test users can sign in, and Google shows an "unverified app" screen first: choose Advanced, then continue.
• Each person's Gmail and Drive is their own: connect the shared or company account, or set who can see this connector.

What Jola brings in

You pick which of these on the connect screen.

• Emails: Emails in Gmail, sent and received: who, subject, date, labels and a preview. Contents are read for search.
• Calendars: The calendars this account can see.
• Calendar events: Events on every calendar, past and upcoming: time, place, who's invited, and cancellations.
• Drive files: Files in Drive and shared with you: name, type, owner, changed date and link. Docs, Sheets, Slides, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and text files are read for search.
• Contacts: Google Contacts: names, emails, phones, companies and titles.

What Jola can change

Only when someone asks, or through an automation an owner or admin turned on. Each change is logged.

• Send an email: Sends an email from this Gmail account.
• Draft an email: Saves an email in Gmail drafts for someone to check and send.
• Add a calendar event: Adds an event to a calendar, and invites people if you list them.
• Create a Google Doc: Creates a new Google Doc with the text you give.
• Add a row to a Google Sheet: Adds a row at the bottom of the sheet's first tab. Separate the cells with |.
• Add a row to a Google Sheet by its link: Adds a row at the bottom of the first tab of the Sheet you paste a link to. Separate the cells with |.

What it can't do

• PDF and image text (no text recognition yet)
• Attachments' contents
• Chat and Meet recordings
• Sending as someone else or from an alias
• Other people's private calendars

Disconnect it in Jola

Open Connectors, pick Google Workspace, and choose Delete. Jola takes back its sign-in where Google Workspace allows it, and deletes the sign-in, every synced row and document, and the sync history. Seeds using it are shown first, and automations using it pause. Nothing in Google Workspace itself is deleted.

Remove Jola from Google Workspace

Open your Google Account's security settings, and remove Jola under third-party access.
