Is my Pipedrive data secure when connected to Gmail?
Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Pipedrive or Gmail passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your crm 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 Pipedrive and Gmail?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Pipedrive or Gmail. For example, create a workflow where Pipedrive events update Gmail, and a separate one where Gmail changes sync back to Pipedrive. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect Pipedrive and Gmail?
No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Pipedrive and Gmail, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
