Enjoying the integrated Gmail and Calendar functionalities in ChatGPT Plus - this is a guide for usage
ChatGPT Plus and Pro users can now seamlessly integrate their Google accounts, allowing the AI model to function more like a personal assistant. With this new feature, users can connect their Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and Contacts to ChatGPT for a more streamlined and efficient experience.
Connecting Google Services
To connect your Google services to ChatGPT, follow these simple steps:
- Connect Gmail and Google Calendar via Connectors:
- Open ChatGPT and click your username to open the menu.
- Go to Settings → Connectors tab.
- Select Gmail and Google Calendar (also Contacts and Drive if desired).
- Follow the on-screen authorization prompts to grant ChatGPT access to your Google account.
- This one-time setup enables ChatGPT to directly access your emails and calendar events, allowing you to query things like “What meetings do I have today?” or “Show me emails that need replies” in chat.
- Enable Deep Research Mode for Fuller Integration:
- Deep Research is available for Plus, Pro, Team, and Enterprise users and allows ChatGPT to securely pull in real-time data from connected apps.
- Start a new GPT-4 chat, click Tools → Run Deep Research.
- In the Sources section, select Connect more.
- Choose Gmail, Google Drive, Canva, or other apps to connect by logging in.
- After setup, you can use natural language prompts to have ChatGPT summarize emails, review documents, or check calendar events seamlessly as part of your research workflow.
Key Features and Benefits
- Manage your Google communications and schedule efficiently within ChatGPT, leveraging AI for rapid summaries, reminders, and actionable insights without leaving the chat interface.
- Ask ChatGPT questions about your emails, such as "Who emails me the most?" or "Who haven't I replied to?".
