Gmail connector

OAuth 2.0Communication

Gmail is Google's cloud based email service that allows you to access your messages from any computer or device with just a web browser.

Gmail connector

  1. Terminal window
    npm install @scalekit-sdk/node

    Full SDK reference: Node.js | Python

  2. Add your Scalekit credentials to your .env file. Find values in app.scalekit.com > Developers > API Credentials.

    .env
    SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL=<your-environment-url>
    SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id>
    SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret>
  3. Register your Gmail credentials with Scalekit so it handles the token lifecycle. You do this once per environment.

    Dashboard setup steps

    Register your Scalekit environment with the Gmail connector so Scalekit handles the authentication flow and token lifecycle for you. The connection name you create will be used to identify and invoke the connection programmatically. Then complete the configuration in your application as follows:

    1. Set up auth redirects

      • In Scalekit dashboard, go to AgentKit > Connections > Create Connection. Find Gmail and click Create.

      • Click Use your own credentials and copy the redirect URI. It looks like https://<SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL>/sso/v1/oauth/<CONNECTION_ID>/callback.

        Copy redirect URI from Scalekit dashboard

      • Navigate to Google Cloud ConsoleAPIs & ServicesCredentials. Click + Create Credentials, then OAuth client ID. Choose Web application as the application type.

        Select Web application in Google Cloud Console

      • Under Authorized redirect URIs, click + Add URI, paste the redirect URI, and click Create.

        Add authorized redirect URI in Google Cloud Console

    2. Enable Gmail API

      • In Google Cloud Console, go to APIs & ServicesLibrary. Search for “Gmail API” and click Enable.

        Enable Gmail API in Google Cloud Console

    3. Get client credentials

      Google provides your Client ID and Client Secret after you create the OAuth client ID in step 1.

    4. Add credentials in Scalekit

      • In Scalekit dashboard, go to AgentKit > Connections and open the connection you created.

      • Enter your credentials:

        Add credentials for Gmail in Scalekit dashboard

      • Click Save.

  4. quickstart.ts
    import { ScalekitClient } from '@scalekit-sdk/node'
    import 'dotenv/config'
    const scalekit = new ScalekitClient(
    process.env.SCALEKIT_ENV_URL,
    process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID,
    process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET,
    )
    const actions = scalekit.actions
    const connector = 'gmail'
    const identifier = 'user_123'
    // Generate an authorization link for the user
    const { link } = await actions.getAuthorizationLink({ connectionName: connector, identifier })
    console.log('Authorize Gmail:', link)
    process.stdout.write('Press Enter after authorizing...')
    await new Promise(r => process.stdin.once('data', r))
    // Make your first call
    const result = await actions.executeTool({
    connector,
    identifier,
    toolName: 'gmail_fetch_mails',
    toolInput: {},
    })
    console.log(result)

Connect this agent connector to let your agent:

  • Read emails — fetch messages, threads, and attachments from any label or inbox
  • Send and reply — compose new emails and reply to existing threads on behalf of your users
  • Search messages — query Gmail with full search syntax to find emails by sender, subject, or content
  • Manage labels — apply, remove, and list labels to organize messages
  • Access contacts — look up contacts and people from the user’s address book
Use Gmail response fields as returned

Response fields from Gmail tools use camelCase, such as threadId, messageId, and internalDate. Tool input parameters use the snake_case names shown in the Tool list, such as thread_id and message_id. Extract values with camelCase, then pass them with snake_case.

const fetchResponse = await actions.executeTool({
connector: 'gmail',
identifier: 'user_123',
toolName: 'gmail_fetch_mails',
toolInput: {
query: 'is:unread',
max_results: 5,
},
});
const messages = Array.isArray(fetchResponse.data?.messages)
? fetchResponse.data.messages
: [];
const threadId = typeof messages[0]?.threadId === 'string' ? messages[0].threadId : '';
if (threadId) {
const threadResponse = await actions.executeTool({
connector: 'gmail',
identifier: 'user_123',
toolName: 'gmail_get_thread_by_id',
toolInput: {
thread_id: threadId,
},
});
console.log(threadResponse.data);
}
Proxy API call
const result = await actions.request({
connectionName: 'gmail',
identifier: 'user_123',
path: '/gmail/v1/users/me/profile',
method: 'GET',
});
console.log(result);
Google OAuth consent screen verification

Before you use your own Google OAuth credentials in production, understand what end users see on Google’s consent screen when they authorize a connected account.

Audience typeConsent screen behaviorWhen to use
InternalShows your App Name and logo from Branding settingsOnly users in your Google Workspace or Cloud Identity organization can authorize the connector
ExternalShows {env_name}.scalekit.dev until Google verifies your appAny user with a Google account can authorize the connector

Why External is required for most AgentKit connectors:

  • Internal restricts authorization to users in your Google Workspace or Cloud Identity organization. Users with @gmail.com or other Google accounts outside your organization cannot complete OAuth.
  • External is required when end users outside your organization authorize tool access through connected accounts.
  • Organization-managed OAuth clients follow the same rules as personal or developer OAuth clients. Switching to an org-owned client does not bypass Google verification.
  • Until Google completes verification of your External app, users see scalekit.dev on the consent screen. After verification, your App Name and logo appear.

During development:

  • Add Test users under APIs & Services → OAuth consent screen while publishing status is Testing.
  • On unverified apps, users can click Advanced → Go to app (unsafe) to proceed during testing.
  • Google Workspace admins may need to allowlist your OAuth client.

For Google’s verification requirements and timeline, refer to Google’s OAuth consent screen verification guide.

Use the exact tool names from the Tool list below when you call execute_tool. If you’re not sure which name to use, list the tools available for the current user first.
