How to connect your Gmail to akin
Connecting akin and Gmail
Step 1: Go to your akin dashboard and click on "Email" in the horizontal menu.
Step 2: There will be a pop-up window where you must switch the Email button to "on". Then click on "+ Add member" and add the Email Adress(es) you want to add.
Step 3: After inserting the Email Adress(es), click on the green checkmark.
Step 4: Now go to your Gmail account and click on the + in the right corner. Make sure your side panel is visible to see the +. If you can't see it, click on the small arrow in the right downer corner.
Step 5: Once you entered the Google add-on marketplace, enter "akin" in the search bar. Click on the AKIN AI AGENT to open it.
Step 6: Click "Install". If you are an admin there will be two buttons, one for "admin install" (click here if you want to install for everyone) and one for "individual install" (click here if you want to install only for yourself)
Step 7: To answer your Emails, akin needs access to your Google Account. Everything listed below is necessary to answer your Emails, so click "Allow" at the bottom of the pop-up.
Step 8: That's it. You should see an akin shortcut in the right sidebar. To use it, open an Email and simply click on the akin logo. It will ask you if you want it to draft an answer. Click "draft answer" and wait for a few seconds.
Step 9: After your draft was made for you, you can review, change something or leave it as it is. You still need to click "send" to send it to you (potential) guest.
