How Do I Connect Gmail (or Any App) to Grok Bot?

Short answer

Click Connect apps at the bottom of the sidebar, search for the app, choose Add and sign in to your account in the browser window that opens. For Gmail there’s a shortcut: your first Bot offers a Gmail card in chat, and Authorize does the same thing.

As of Oct 26, 2026 (Grok Bot desktop app v0.75.8).

Grok Bot Connect Apps window: a search box for apps and skills, category chips (Password Managers, Productivity, Communication, Design, Code, More), and a Recommended for you list with Notion, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Slack, Datadog and Vercel, each with an Add button

Steps

Click Connect apps at the bottom left (or press Ctrl+Shift+M).
Search or browse by category, then click the app to see what it can do.
Choose Add and sign in. Return to Grok Bot when the browser says you’re done.

First chat in Grok Bot: the Bot offers "Connect Gmail and I'll find something I can take care of for you right away. Nothing gets sent without your approval", with a Gmail card and an Authorize button

Before you connect

A connected app can be used by every Bot on your account, so connect only what your Bots need.
The Gmail card says Grok Bot asks before making changes, and you can disconnect at any time.
If a Bot says an app is missing, open it in Connect apps and sign in again.

Review Auto-review and approval settings before giving an app access.
