Frequently asked questions
- How do I connect Gmail to OpenAI (ChatGPT)?
- Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Gmail and OpenAI (ChatGPT) via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing communication events to artificial intelligence (ai) actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
- What can I automate between Gmail and OpenAI (ChatGPT)?
- You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Gmail events to OpenAI (ChatGPT) actions, trigger OpenAI (ChatGPT) updates when Gmail data changes, create OpenAI (ChatGPT) records from Gmail events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
- Is the Gmail and OpenAI (ChatGPT) integration free?
- Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Gmail-to-OpenAI (ChatGPT) workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
- Is my Gmail data secure when connected to OpenAI (ChatGPT)?
- Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Gmail or OpenAI (ChatGPT) passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your communication data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
- Can I sync data both ways between Gmail and OpenAI (ChatGPT)?
- Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Gmail or OpenAI (ChatGPT). For example, create a workflow where Gmail events update OpenAI (ChatGPT), and a separate one where OpenAI (ChatGPT) changes sync back to Gmail. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
- Do I need technical skills to connect Gmail and OpenAI (ChatGPT)?
- No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Gmail and OpenAI (ChatGPT), you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
