Assistant

Your assistant's email address

Every assistant has its own email address — send it work from your inbox.

Your assistant isn’t only reachable from the Tyms app: it has its own email address, so you can send it work straight from your inbox — forward a thread, send an attachment, or fire off a request from your phone.

Find your assistant’s address

Open Channels from your user menu. You’ll see:

  • your assistant’s email address,
  • when it last received a message, and
  • a send a test email button to try it out.

Add the address to your contacts and your assistant is one forward away from any email you’re looking at.

How it behaves

  • Your assistant answers email from you — its owner — only. Mail from anyone else isn’t acted on, so nobody can drive your assistant from the outside.
  • Requests sent by email work like requests typed in the app: your assistant does the work and replies, and its output lands in Drive like everything else.

For admins

Workspace admins manage the email service — per-user addresses, forwarding, and domains — from the admin area. See The email channel.
