# Integrations: Connect Google or Microsoft
URL: /docs/integrations/google

Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Drive, Meet, and Sheets, or Outlook and Outlook Calendar.

Google is a group of integrations you connect from [Integrations](/docs/integrations): Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Meet, and Google Sheets. If you use Microsoft instead, Outlook and Outlook Calendar work the same way. See [Microsoft](#microsoft) below.

“Connected” means that integration is offered and can be linked in Nudgly. It does not mean every action is turned on for every account, or that a provider has approved every use.

<Apps>
  <App name="Gmail" logo="gmail" category="Email" status="Connected">
    A connected mail integration. What Elena can do depends on the access you grant Google and on Nudgly’s per-action settings.
  </App>
  <App name="Google Calendar" logo="google-calendar" category="Calendar" status="Connected">
    A connected calendar integration for the Google account you authorize.
  </App>
  <App name="Google Meet" logo="google-meet" category="Meetings" status="Connected">
    Available when a Google account is connected and Meet access is granted. Lets your assistant schedule calls and catch the calls you start. To have it join calls and take notes, see [Meetings](/docs/features/meetings).
  </App>
  <App name="Google Docs" logo="google-docs" category="Documents" status="Connected">
    A connected Docs integration for the account you authorize.
  </App>
  <App name="Google Drive" logo="google-drive" category="Documents" status="Connected">
    A connected Drive integration for the account you authorize.
  </App>
  <App name="Google Sheets" logo="google-sheets" category="Documents" status="Connected">
    A connected Sheets integration for the account you authorize.
  </App>
</Apps>

## Connect and authorize [#connect-and-authorize]

1. Open [Integrations](/docs/integrations).
2. Find the Google app you want and tap Connect.
3. Choose the Google account, then review Google’s consent screen.
4. Approve the access Google asks for. That screen is the provider’s authorization. It is not the same as Nudgly’s per-action settings.
5. When the card shows Connected, the account is linked. You can still limit what Elena is allowed to do inside Nudgly.

## Two different controls [#two-different-controls]

Google’s consent screen lists the scopes that provider is asked to grant. Those scopes belong to Google’s authorization.

After an app is connected, Nudgly has its own per-action permissions. A read action can be allowed, while a create, change, or delete action can be set to require your approval. Those Nudgly controls do not replace, and are not the same as, the scopes on Google’s consent screen.

Do not treat a Google integration as read-only. The actions available for a connected app can include creating, changing, sending, or deleting data. Use the per-action settings to decide which of those need approval. Sending an email, paying, booking, and deleting always ask for your approval, whatever you set.

## Disconnect [#disconnect]

Open [Integrations](/docs/integrations), find the connected Google card, and tap Disconnect. Nudgly stops using that connection. Disconnecting one Google app does not delete your Nudgly account. See [Managing and reconnecting](/docs/integrations/managing).

## Microsoft [#microsoft]

Outlook and Outlook Calendar are in [Integrations](/docs/integrations) too. Connect them the same way: tap Connect, sign in with your Microsoft account, and approve the access Microsoft asks for.

<Apps>
  <App name="Outlook" logo="outlook" category="Email" status="Available">
    Read, draft, and send Outlook mail with your assistant. Sending always asks you first.
  </App>
  <App name="Outlook Calendar" logo="outlook" category="Calendar" status="Available">
    See and plan your Outlook calendar from chat.
  </App>
</Apps>

On Starter, you connect apps from Google or from Microsoft, not both. Pro and Pro+ can connect both.

## If authorization fails [#if-authorization-fails]

Note which Google app you were connecting and what the consent screen or error said, then [contact support](/docs/resources/support).
