MCP server
Gmail
Search your inbox and draft emails from inside Claude.
No terminal neededOfficial
Published by the company that makes the product.
What it can access
Uses your own Google sign-in (OAuth 2.0); can read and draft mail in the account you personally sign in with.
Security note
Same official, Google-hosted, permission-inheriting pattern as the Drive server above, but a mailbox is one of the most sensitive things an assistant can be given. Connect it only from an account that carries no witness or case correspondence, and read every draft before it is sent.
Before you start
A Claude plan that includes Connectors: Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise have them, the free plan does not, as of our last check. And a Google account signed in on this computer.
How to install
- In Claude, open Settings → Connectors.
- Find “Gmail”, or click “Add connector” and search for it.
- Click Connect. A Google sign-in window opens.
- Read the list of permissions Google shows you. Click Allow only if you recognise every item on it.
How to remove it
- In Claude, open Settings → Connectors, find “Gmail”, and click Disconnect.
- Then go to myaccount.google.com/permissions, find “Claude”, and remove its access there. Disconnecting inside Claude does not revoke it on Google’s side.
