# Gmail

> Send Wave emails from your own Gmail address

<Info>
  Available on the **Enterprise** plan.
</Info>

Connect your Gmail account so emails Wave sends on your behalf, such as contact sharing and follow-ups, come from your own Gmail address rather than a generic Wave address.

## How to Connect

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the integration">
    Go to **Integrations → Gmail**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Google">
    Click **Connect** and sign in to your Google account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize Wave">
    Authorize Wave to send email on your behalf.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Your Gmail address and display name are detected automatically from your Google account.

<Note>
  Wave only requests permission to **send** email. It cannot read, store, or index your Gmail inbox.
</Note>

## What Gets Synced

This integration is for sending only. Wave does not read or sync any messages from your inbox.

**Direction**: Outbound only (Wave → Gmail API → recipient)

**When**: Per email send (no background sync)

## Features

* Emails sent by Wave appear in recipients' inboxes as coming from your Gmail address.
* Sent emails appear in your Gmail Sent folder.

## Limitations & Requirements

* This is a personal integration, connected per user.
* Wave only sends emails. It never reads or indexes your inbox.

## Disconnecting

Go to **Integrations → Gmail** and click **Disconnect**. This removes the integration and revokes Wave's sending access. Future Wave emails revert to the default Wave sender address.
