# Gmail

> Let the Dema Agent send emails on your behalf via the Gmail API.

## Overview

Once Gmail is connected, the Dema Agent can send emails from your Gmail account. Useful for sharing Dema findings with stakeholders or sending automated updates from a conversation.

<Note>
  The Gmail integration is send-only. Dema does not read your inbox or any
  existing messages.
</Note>

***

## Prerequisites

* A Google Workspace or personal Google account.
* If you are on Google Workspace, your admin may need to approve third-party apps before you can connect.

***

## Connect Gmail

1. In Dema, go to **Agents → Settings → Integrations**.
2. Find **Gmail** and click **Connect**.
3. Sign in to Google and approve the scopes Dema requests.
4. You are returned to Dema with the integration marked as Active.

## Scopes Dema requests

| Scope                                        | What it allows                                                                                        |
| -------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send` | Send messages on your behalf. Does not grant access to read, search, modify, or delete existing mail. |

***

## Troubleshooting

* **Admin approval required.** If your Google Workspace blocks the Dema Agent during sign-in, ask your Workspace admin to approve the app for your organization.
* **Send fails with "insufficient permissions".** Disconnect and reconnect the integration to re-approve the `gmail.send` scope.
