Expanding Google Workspace extensions available in open beta for the Gemini app

What’s changing

Earlier this year, we launched Google Workspace extensions for Gmail, Google Drive and Google Docs in open beta for the Gemini app. Beginning today, we’re pleased to announce that Google Calendar, Google Keep and Google Tasks are also available as Workspace extensions in the Gemini app.

Who’s impacted

Admins and end users

Why you’d use it

Extensions allow the Gemini app to interact with other Google apps and services, helping to provide more contextual and relevant responses to your prompts and take certain actions across apps. For example, you can use extensions to:

Calendar

Create an event in Google Calendar based on specific details or based on your conversation with the Gemini appFind events for a specific day, date range, or based on event detailsEdit or cancel events in Calendar

Tasks

Add reminders and tasks, including those based on your conversation with the Gemini appView a list of your tasks and update your tasks

Keep

Create notes and lists, including those based on your conversation with the Gemini appAdd an item to your existing listFind content from your notes and listsReference your notes and lists in your conversation with the Gemini app

Additional details

If your prompt includes multiple actions that require separate apps or services, but one or more of the required services are not enabled, neither of the actions will be completed. For example, if you prompt Gemini to create an event on your calendar and a reminder for that event but the Tasks extension is not enabled, the event will not be added to your calendar and you will not get a reminder.As a reminder, during the open beta period, Context-Aware Access (CAA) for Gmail, Drive, Docs, Calendar, Keep and Tasks isn’t supported with Google Workspace extensions. Context-Aware Access gives you control over which apps a user can access based on their context, such as whether their device complies with your IT policy. Learn more about Context-Aware Access.Google Workspace extensions is not available to Google Workspace users accessing Gemini as an additional Google service.Note that Google Workspace personal content the Gemini app gets from extensions is not reviewed by anyone to improve AI models, not used to train AI models, and not shared with other users or institutions.
