Connect Gmail first. Email is where most work originates, which means it’s where Fluso has the richest context to work from. The payoff is bigger and faster than from any other integration.

​
What changes once it’s on

You ask Fluso to summarise your inbox, search for something specific, draft a reply, or pull tasks out of actionable mail, and it does. The email skill is one of several that activate automatically once Gmail is connected — see Skills for the full catalog. The short version of what’s available:
  • Inbox triage in plain English (“summarise my unread emails from today”)
  • Search across the full mailbox (“find the email where Thomas sent the pricing spreadsheet”)
  • Draft replies in your voice (“reply to Sarah, I’ll have estimates by Thursday”)
  • Auto-task extraction running in the background
  • Thread summaries (“summarise the email thread about the vendor negotiation”)
  • Follow-up tracking (“has the client responded about the contract?”)

​
Setup

Open Customization → Connectors and click Connect on the Gmail card. Sign in to Google with the account you want Fluso to assist with. The OAuth screen lists three permissions:
  • Read your messages — for summaries, search, and task extraction.
  • Send messages — for reply drafts. Fluso never sends without your approval.
  • Read headers — for categorising messages by sender, label, and date.
Missing from the list: anything that lets Fluso delete mail or change account settings. There’s no path to either, even if it wanted one. A click and a confirmation screen.

​
Prompts that work well

Triage:
“Summarise my unread emails from today.”
“Which emails need a reply today?”
“Anything from my boss I haven’t responded to?”
Search:
“Find unread emails older than three days.”
“Emails from @acme.com in the last two weeks that mention ‘contract’ and have attachments.”
“Starred emails from April about the budget.”
Drafts:
“Reply to the client. Confirm we’ll implement the changes by next sprint.”
“Compose an introduction email to the new client we met at the conference.”
“Make my last draft more formal.”
Follow-ups:
“Did Legal reply to my questions from Monday?”
“Anyone I emailed last week who hasn’t responded?”

​
How permissions actually behave

Reading happens when you ask for it (“summarise my inbox”) and continuously in the background for auto-task extraction. Messages are processed for the response and not stored beyond what’s referenced in your knowledge graph and tasks. Sending requires your explicit approval. Drafts are always shown first. There’s no batch-send mode that bypasses the review. Header metadata is used for categorisation only and never shared with third parties.

​
Disconnecting

In Customization → Connectors, click Disconnect on the Gmail card. The token is deleted immediately and Fluso loses access. You can also revoke directly from Google Account → Security → Third-party apps.

​
Troubleshooting

Verify Gmail still shows as Connected in Customization → Connectors. If it does, disconnect and reconnect. If the issue persists, you may have hit a Gmail API rate limit. Wait a few minutes and try again.
OAuth tokens occasionally expire. In Customization → Connectors, click Reconnect. Refresh the page once it’s done.
Auto-task extraction runs periodically and learns the shape of your inbox over a couple of days. You can also force a sweep with “Scan my inbox for tasks.”
