Connections
Google Calendar and Drive
Connect your own calendar for meeting briefs, and your own Drive so Pondros can write docs, sheets and slides there.
Calendar and Drive are personal connections: each person connects their own, and Pondros only uses it for things it does for that person.
Google Calendar
Connecting your calendar lets Pondros:
- DM you a short brief a few minutes before a meeting: who’s coming and what’s open with them;
- answer questions like what’s on my calendar tomorrow?
Access is read-only. Pondros can see your events, not change them.
Google Drive
Connecting your Drive lets Pondros write Google Docs, Sheets and Slides for you, in a folder called Pondros in your own Drive. It asks the first time you request a document.
Pondros can only open files it created or files you choose to share with it. It can’t browse the rest of your Drive. See Documents.
Gmail
Note
Gmail isn’t available yet. It needs a Google review that isn’t finished, so Pondros can’t read or send email for now.
Disconnect
Type /pondros connectin Slack to see your connections. To remove access, take Pondros out of your Google account’s third-party access settings.
