Does Gmail work with Claude Duet?

- Claude Duet reads, drafts, and prepares work on its own.
- But before it sends a message, makes a payment, signs a document, or deletes anything, it shows you exactly what it’s about to do and waits for your approval.
Limitations to know about
- The announcement says only that Duet can find missed Gmail messages and help you reply. It does not list which Gmail features or accounts are covered, so check what your own connection screen offers.
- Messages written by other people can contain instructions. Read them as content to evaluate, not as commands Claude should follow.
Also: Email can contain private data or malicious instructions. Check recipients, attachments and quoted content before approval.
When it is not the right fit
- You want fully automatic replies, while the announcement describes approval before anything is sent.
- The mailbox holds regulated or highly confidential material you may not share with a connected app.
A small task to start with
This is our suggested evaluation prompt, not a tested result or an installation command.
Find messages from this week that need my response. Draft replies, but do not send them.
Use non-sensitive sample data first. Compare the answer with the original inputs and record what needed correction before expanding the workflow.
Before you rely on it
- Connect only the mailbox this task needs.
- Ask for drafts first, then read the recipient line and attachments before approving a send.
- Disconnect the app when the task is finished if you will not use it daily.
Where to get started
- Check your Duet preview access and open the official marketplace.
- Find the provider and inspect the requested account permissions.
- Connect only the account needed for your task. Start with reading or drafting, then review the output.
