What’s changing
Last year, we added Google Calendar to the list of apps that Gemini in Gmail connects with. As a result, users can ask Gemini in Gmail to perform select calendar related actions or answer questions about their calendars such as:
- When is my [first event] next week?
- Create a [30 min] calendar event for my weekly [yoga class] every [Monday and Wednesday] at [9 AM].
- Create a [1h] event for [lunch] [tomorrow] at [noon].

Additional details
At this time, Gemini in Gmail cannot:

- Find the best time to meet with other people or find time slots when you’re available to meet.
- Create tasks, an out of office, focus times or set working locations.

Getting started
- Admins: To access Gemini in the side panel of Workspace apps, users need to have smart features and personalization turned on. Admins can turn on default personalization setting for their users in the Admin console.
- End users:
- On web, you can access Gemini in the Gmail side panel by clicking on “Ask Gemini” icon in the top right corner of Gmail.
- While not required, just like gemini.google.com, you can invoke Calendar by adding "@Calendar" at the beginning of your prompt in the side panel of Gmail to explicitly call on Calendar.
