Google Chat integration for AI agents.

Google Chat integration for AI agents with secure authentication and server-side credential injection. Open Connector runs the OAuth, seals the token in an encrypted vault, and serves Google Chat tools to your agent over MCP or a typed API — credentials injected server-side, every call audited, nothing leaving your infrastructure. Open source (AGPL-3.0) and self-hostable.

What your agents can do

Real Google Chat actions, managed and audited.

Your user connects Google Chat once; your agent can then secure AI-agent actions — scoped to the OAuth permissions you grant and the tool allowlist you configure. Every action is least-privilege and written to a tamper-evident audit trail.

  1. 1

    Your user grants Google Chat access once (OAuth) — the token lands in the vault.

  2. 2

    Your agent calls a tool over MCP or the typed API; Open Connector injects the credential server-side.

  3. 3

    Every routed call appends a hash-chained audit record — nothing leaves your infra.

Tools & triggers

Supported Google Chat tools.

29 tools are generated from the published Google Chat catalog. Descriptions are plain text; each action remains subject to its configured authentication and tool allowlist.

Showing 29 tools. All published catalog entries are included in this page's server-rendered HTML.

Chat Spaces Create
Creates a space. Can be used to create a named space, or a group chat in `Import mode`. For an example, see [Create a space](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/create-spaces). Supports the following types of [authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize): - [App authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-app) with [administrator approval](https://support.google.com/a?p=chat-app-auth) and one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.spaces.create` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.spaces` - [User authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces.create` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.import` (import mode spaces only) When authenticating as an app, the `space.customer` field must be set in the request. When authenticating as an app, the Chat app is added as a member of the space. However, unlike human authentication, the Chat app is not added as a space manager. By default, the Chat app can be removed from the space by all space members. To allow only space managers to remove the app from a space, set `space.permission_settings.manage_apps` to `managers_allowed`. Space membership upon creation depends on whether the space is created in `Import mode`: * **Import mode:** No members are created. * **All other modes:** The calling user is added as a member. This is: * The app itself when using app authentication. * The human user when using user authentication. If you receive the error message `ALREADY_EXISTS` when creating a space, try a different `displayName`. An existing space within the Google Workspace organization might already use this display name.

Chat Spaces FindDirectMessage
Returns the existing direct message with the specified user. If no direct message space is found, returns a `404 NOT_FOUND` error. For an example, see [Find a direct message](/chat/api/guides/v1/spaces/find-direct-message). With [app authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-app), returns the direct message space between the specified user and the calling Chat app. With [user authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user), returns the direct message space between the specified user and the authenticated user. Supports the following types of [authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize): - [App authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-app) with the authorization scope: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.bot` - [User authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces`
spaces
Chat Spaces FindGroupChats
Returns all spaces with `spaceType == GROUP_CHAT`, whose human memberships contain exactly the calling user, and the users specified in `FindGroupChatsRequest.users`. Only members that have joined the conversation are supported. For an example, see [Find group chats](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/find-group-chats). If the calling user blocks, or is blocked by, some users, and no spaces with the entire specified set of users are found, this method returns spaces that don't include the blocked or blocking users. The specified set of users must contain only human (non-app) memberships. A request that contains non-human users doesn't return any spaces. Requires [user authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following [authorization scopes](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize#chat-api-scopes): - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.memberships.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.memberships`

Chat Spaces Messages Create
Creates a message in a Google Chat space. For an example, see [Send a message](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/create-messages). Supports the following types of [authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize): - [App authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-app) with the authorization scope: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.bot` - [User authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages.create` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.import` (import mode spaces only) Chat attributes the message sender differently depending on the type of authentication that you use in your request. The following image shows how Chat attributes a message when you use app authentication. Chat displays the Chat app as the message sender. The content of the message can contain text (`text`), cards (`cardsV2`), and accessory widgets (`accessoryWidgets`). ![Message sent with app authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/images/message-app-auth.svg) The following image shows how Chat attributes a message when you use user authentication. Chat displays the user as the message sender and attributes the Chat app to the message by displaying its name. The content of message can only contain text (`text`). ![Message sent with user authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/images/message-user-auth.svg) The maximum message size, including the message contents, is 32,000 bytes. For [webhook](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/quickstart/webhooks) requests, the response doesn't contain the full message. The response only populates the `name` and `thread.name` fields in addition to the information that was in the request.
spaces
Chat Spaces Messages List
Lists messages in a space that the caller is a member of, including messages from blocked members and spaces. System messages, like those announcing new space members, aren't included. If you list messages from a space with no messages, the response is an empty object. When using a REST/HTTP interface, the response contains an empty JSON object, `{}`. For an example, see [List messages](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/api/guides/v1/messages/list). Supports the following types of [authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize): - [App authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-app) with [administrator approval](https://support.google.com/a?p=chat-app-auth) with the authorization scope: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.messages.readonly`. When using this authentication scope, this method only returns public messages in a space. It doesn't include private messages. - [User authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.import` (import mode spaces only)

Chat Spaces Search
Returns a list of spaces in a Google Workspace organization. For an example, see [Search for and manage spaces](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/search-manage-admin). When `use_admin_access` is set to `false`, the results are limited to spaces where the calling user is a joined member. To search with administrator privileges, set `use_admin_access` to `true`. Setting `use_admin_access` to `false` is available under Developer Preview. Supports the following types of [authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize): - [User authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces` - [User authentication with administrator privileges](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user#admin-privileges) and one of the following [authorization scopes](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize#chat-api-scopes): - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.admin.spaces.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.admin.spaces`
spaces
Chat Spaces Setup
Creates a space and adds specified users to it. The calling user is automatically added to the space, and shouldn't be specified as a membership in the request. For an example, see [Set up a space with initial members](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/set-up-spaces). To specify the human members to add, add memberships with the appropriate `membership.member.name`. To add a human user, use `users/{user}`, where `{user}` can be the email address for the user. For users in the same Workspace organization `{user}` can also be the `id` for the person from the People API, or the `id` for the user in the Directory API. For example, if the People API Person profile ID for `user@example.com` is `123456789`, you can add the user to the space by setting the `membership.member.name` to `users/user@example.com` or `users/123456789`. To specify the Google groups to add, add memberships with the appropriate `membership.group_member.name`. To add or invite a Google group, use `groups/{group}`, where `{group}` is the `id` for the group from the Cloud Identity Groups API. For example, you can use [Cloud Identity Groups lookup API](https://cloud.google.com/identity/docs/reference/rest/v1/groups/lookup) to retrieve the ID `123456789` for group email `group@example.com`, then you can add the group to the space by setting the `membership.group_member.name` to `groups/123456789`. Group email is not supported, and Google groups can only be added as members in named spaces. For a named space or group chat, if the caller blocks, or is blocked by some members, or doesn't have permission to add some members, then those members aren't added to the created space. To create a direct message (DM) between the calling user and another human user, specify exactly one membership to represent the human user. If one user blocks the other, the request fails and the DM isn't created. To create a DM between the calling user and the calling app, set `Space.singleUserBotDm` to `true` and don't specify any memberships. You can only use this method to set up a DM with the calling app. To add the calling app as a member of a space or an existing DM between two human users, see [Invite or add a user or app to a space](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/create-members). If a DM already exists between two users, even when one user blocks the other at the time a request is made, then the existing DM is returned. Spaces with threaded replies aren't supported. If you receive the error message `ALREADY_EXISTS` when setting up a space, try a different `displayName`. An existing space within the Google Workspace organization might already use this display name. Requires [user authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following [authorization scopes](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize#chat-api-scopes): - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces.create` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces`

Chat Spaces SpaceEvents List
Lists events from a Google Chat space. For each event, the [payload](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/api/reference/rest/v1/spaces.spaceEvents#SpaceEvent.FIELDS.oneof_payload) contains the most recent version of the Chat resource. For example, if you list events about new space members, the server returns `Membership` resources that contain the latest membership details. If new members were removed during the requested period, the event payload contains an empty `Membership` resource. Supports the following types of [authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize) with an [authorization scope](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize#chat-api-scopes) appropriate for reading the requested data: - [App authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-app) with [administrator approval](https://support.google.com/a?p=chat-app-auth) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.spaces` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.spaces.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.messages.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.memberships` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.app.memberships.readonly` - [User authentication](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize-chat-user) with one of the following authorization scopes: - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages.reactions.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.messages.reactions` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.memberships.readonly` - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.memberships` To list events, the authenticated caller must be a member of the space. For an example, see [List events from a Google Chat space](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/list-space-events).

FAQ

Google Chat integration, answered

How do AI agents use Google Chat through Open Connector?
Your user connects Google Chat once with one of its cataloged authentication methods. Open Connector stores the credential in an encrypted vault and exposes Google Chat tools to your agent over MCP or a typed API, with credentials injected server-side on each call.
Is this a Google Chat MCP server?
Yes. Open Connector can serve Google Chat as a named MCP server with a scoped allowlist and a per-user connection URL, so any MCP client can call Google Chat actions with credentials injected server-side.
Where do Google Chat credentials live?
In your own infrastructure. Open Connector keeps credentials in its own vault and injects them at call time, so they never leave your environment.
