How to Use Gmail with Pokee AI

Pokee AI's Gmail integration lets you read, send, organize, and manage your email through natural language commands. Instead of manually sorting through your inbox, you can ask Pokee to find specific emails, draft responses, send bulk messages, and automate recurring email workflows.

What You Can Do with Gmail + Pokee

• Read emails: Search and read messages by sender, subject, date, or content
• Send emails: Compose and send emails with attachments, formatting, and CC/BCC
• Reply to threads: Draft contextual replies based on conversation history
• Organize inbox: Label, archive, and categorize messages
• Bulk operations: Send personalized emails to multiple recipients
• Scheduled sends: Set up automated email sequences
• Extract data: Pull information from emails into spreadsheets or reports

Getting Started

Step 1: Connect Your Gmail Account

When you first ask Pokee to do something with email, it will prompt you to connect your Gmail account through a secure OAuth flow. You'll see a Google sign-in screen where you authorize Pokee to access your email. Pokee never sees your password -- it only receives a scoped access token.

Step 2: Start with a Simple Command

Try something like:

• "Show me my unread emails from today"
• "Find all emails from john@company.com this week"
• "Send an email to sarah@example.com about the project update"

Step 3: Build Up to Complex Workflows

Once connected, you can chain Gmail with other integrations:

• "Read my latest emails from investors and summarize them in a Google Sheet"
• "Draft replies to all unread customer inquiries using our standard response template"
• "Every Monday, email the team a summary of last week's project updates from Jira"

Example Commands

Reading and Searching

"Show me all emails from the marketing team this month"

"Find emails with attachments from last week"

"Search for emails containing 'invoice' from Q1"

"What's the latest email from my manager?"

Sending and Replying

"Send an email to david@company.com: Hey David, the report is attached. Let me know if you have questions."

"Reply to Sarah's last email thanking her for the update"

"Send a meeting follow-up to everyone who attended yesterday's standup"

Automation

"Every Friday at 5pm, email the team a weekly summary of completed tasks"

"When I get an email from a client, create a task in ClickUp"

"Send a personalized welcome email to each new contact in my Google Sheet"
