Google Workspace extensions for Gmail, Google Drive and Google Docs are now available in open beta for Gemini (gemini.google.com), the company has announced. These will be accessible for Gemini for Google Workspace add-on subscribers.
“Google Workspace admins can now opt-in to beta test Gemini Extensions for Gmail and Drive for their organisation. Via the Drive extension, organisations can also access information from Google Docs,” the company said in an announcement.
This means that when enabled, Gemini will be able to cross reference, or to pull data from, these apps as sources to provide contextual information in its responses.
What it means for users
Those subscribers who will be using this capability will be able to find and summarise information, as well as ground Gemini’s responses, from their own content.
“Now, Google Workspace users can collaborate with information from select Google Workspace apps, all in one place, bringing Gemini’s capabilities into user’s daily workflows, enhancing productivity and collaboration,” it added.
For example, you can ask Gemini to pull a specific data sheet (Google Doc) from Drive, analyse it, and send an email to your colleague after summarising the data.
The company says that Google Workspace data will not be used to train Gemini’s public model, and admins have the capability to disable access at any time. This feature will be OFF by default and can be enabled at the OU or Group level.
Full rollout for Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains has been started. It will be available for Google Workspace customers with the Gemini Business, Enterprise, Education, or Education Premium add-on.
