Context Sources
Gmail
Connect Gmail to search project correspondence and prepare replies.
What it can do
- Search threads and read their messages.
- List labels and saved drafts.
- Create drafts for you to review and send from Gmail.
- Apply or remove labels on messages and threads.
Setup and security
- You sign in with your own Google account. Assistant can reach only that mailbox.
- Tools that change data ask for approval before they run. The Approval column under Supported tools shows each tool's setting.
- Nomic cannot send email through this server. Drafts stay in Gmail until you send them.
- Until Google approves Nomic's app, signing in shows a Google MCP access requires whitelisting dialog. Email support@nomic.ai to have your account whitelisted for all Google MCP servers.
- This server is separate from the Gmail integration under Settings → Integrations. Connecting one does not connect the other.
To connect, see Add an MCP server.
Example requests
- "Find emails from the mechanical engineer about the chiller substitution and summarize what was agreed."
- "Draft a reply to the latest RFI thread from the contractor using the answer we worked out above."
- "List threads from this week that mention change orders on the Riverside project."
- "Label every message in the owner's pay application thread as
Billing."
