Integrating AppSheet into Gmail
What’s changing
We're bringing more flexibility into Google Workspace by integrating AppSheet into Gmail through dynamic email support. This integration lets anyone—including non-technical users—build dynamic emails using AppSheet.
Google Workspace Enterprise Plus users and AppSheet users can now:
- Create AppSheet apps that can be rendered in Gmail
- Easily send AppSheet forms and views to Gmail users with embedded, editable data fields
- Trigger additional workflows—such as vacation or budget approvals—using AppSheet automation

Why you’d use it
AppSheet enables anyone, regardless of their coding experience, to quickly build and deploy applications and automation. By bringing AppSheet into Gmail using dynamic email, Google Workspace users can now interact with these apps without having to leave their inbox, saving them time, and helping them be more productive and efficient.
Google Workspace customers are already using this feature in exciting ways, such as for budget, inventory, and vacation approvals; commenting on requests and projects; assigning support tickets; and updating customer info in their CRM, among many other scenarios.
