Connect Google Drive and Gmail so Coworker can read the documents and email you have access to. This is a per-user (individual) connection — every person connects their own Google account.
What Coworker can do with Google Drive and Gmail
Index Drive files as searchable Documents, with full per-file permission mirroring
Read your Gmail messages to answer questions and draft follow-ups
Produce one activity report per document with meaningful activity: what was added or removed, who changed it, and how significant the edit was. Metadata-only touches, whitespace-only edits and temp files never produce a report.
Create and edit documents when a task explicitly calls for it
Relationships mirror Drive itself: owners, editors and viewers become Person entities linked to each file. Every report is visible only to the people who can already see the underlying file.
Before you start
You need an active Google account in your organization
Google Drive must not be blocked for your workspace by a Coworker admin
Connect as a member
Go to the Work page at app.coworker.ai.
Click Data Sources.
Select Google Drive + Gmail under Available sources.
Grant offline access and all requested Drive and Activity scopes.
Connect as an admin
There is no workspace-wide Drive connection that replaces individual grants. An admin can connect their own account like any member, or block the source from Source Settings. Separately, a Google Workspace domain credential can improve group expansion and directory detail — see the Google Workspace article.
Good to know
Coverage is the union of connected users' Drive visibility. Shared-drive and private-file coverage grows as more people connect, and one revoked grant removes only that person's reach.
If you decline a scope, or Coworker adds a newly required one, you must reconnect — refreshing the token is not enough.
Folder hierarchies, revision histories and comment streams are deliberately kept out of the graph.
