What can an AI teammate do with Google Docs?

A Google Docs AI teammate can read full document content, search for docs by title or keyword, retrieve metadata, create new documents, insert or append text, and replace content within existing docs. It can pull context from docs to inform decisions in other tools, or generate new documents from structured data. Write actions require your approval.

Can my teammate edit documents I share with it?

Yes, as long as your connected Google account has edit access to the document. Write operations like inserting or replacing text require your approval before they run.

Is document content stored after a run?

Document content is read during task execution but not permanently stored. Only task outputs - summaries, generated text, reports - are saved to your run history.

How is this different from Google Drive integration?

Google Drive handles file-level operations: listing, moving, and finding files by metadata. Google Docs goes deeper - it reads and writes the actual content inside a document, paragraph by paragraph.
