Google Chat
Google Chat is the team messaging app in Google Workspace, organizing daily project communication into direct messages, group chats, and topic-based spaces. When a project space moves fast while you are in meetings or on leave, catching up means scrolling through hundreds of threaded replies.
Catch up on Google Chat spaces, find where decisions were made, and post updates without switching windows. Omnifact searches messages by keyword or sender, summarizes recent activity in a project space into key decisions and open questions, and posts replies or announcements under your Google account once you confirm the wording in chat. Everyone signs in individually so private spaces and direct messages stay restricted to their members.
Google offers this integration as a preview. It may change, and your organization may need to enroll with Google before using it.

What to know before
using Google Chat with Omnifact
Use cases, access permissions, data handling, and setup when connecting Google Chat to Omnifact.
What can Omnifact do with Google Chat?
Omnifact searches your Google Chat messages, summarizes busy Chat spaces, and posts replies or updates from chat. Team leads catch up on project spaces after vacation, support specialists find how an escalation was answered earlier, and project managers post meeting recaps to group spaces while combining Google Chat with Google Docs, Drive, or Jira.
Can Omnifact summarize a Google Chat space I missed?
Yes. Ask Omnifact what happened in a Google Chat space over the last few days, which questions are still open, or what a colleague wrote about a release. Omnifact reads the recent messages, summarizes the outcome, and can mark the space as read when you are done.
Can Omnifact post messages in Google Chat?
Yes. Omnifact drafts a message or thread reply for a Google Chat space or direct message and shows it to you in chat first. Nothing is posted until you confirm, and the message appears under your own Google Workspace account.
Can Omnifact combine Google Chat with other tools?
Yes. Omnifact uses multiple connected tools in one prompt. For example, a support lead can have Omnifact read an escalation thread in Google Chat, check the matching Zendesk or Jira ticket, and draft a status update for the team space in one conversation.
Which Google Chat spaces and messages can Omnifact see?
Only the Google Chat spaces, group chats, and direct messages your own Google account is a member of. Because everyone signs in with their personal Google account rather than a shared workspace bot, private conversations you do not belong to stay completely inaccessible.
How does Omnifact handle Google Chat messages?
Your messages remain in Google Chat under your Google Workspace agreement. Omnifact reads messages live when a prompt requires them instead of copying or indexing your spaces in advance. Omnifact is operated in Germany, business data is never used to train AI models, and admins can restrict Omnifact to European or Europe-hosted models.
How do I connect Google Chat to Omnifact?
Your IT team configures a one-time Google Cloud OAuth connection for your Google Workspace organization, which currently requires joining Google's Developer Preview program. An Omnifact admin then adds Google Chat once, and each user signs in with their own Google account.
