## Description

List the comments on a Google Doc, including each comment's author, plain text and HTML content, the document text it is anchored to, whether it is resolved, and its full reply thread. Comments on a Doc are served by the Drive API, so the document ID doubles as the file ID. Use **Find Document** first to resolve a document's name to its ID. [See the documentation](https://developers.google.com/workspace/drive/api/reference/rest/v3/comments/list)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `documentId` | `string` | Yes | The ID of the Google Doc. This is the long string in the document's URL: https://docs.google.com/document/d/{DOCUMENT_ID}/edit. Use Find Document to resolve a document's name to its ID. |
| `includeDeleted` | `boolean` | No | Whether to include deleted comments. Deleted comments are returned without their original content. Defaults to false. |
| `startModifiedTime` | `string` | No | Only return comments modified at or after this time, as an RFC 3339 timestamp (e.g. 2026-01-31T00:00:00Z). A comment's modified time also changes when any of its replies changes, so this returns recently-active threads. Leave blank to return all comments. |
| `limit` | `integer` | No | Maximum number of comments to return (min 1, max 500). Defaults to 100. |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "google_docs",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "google_docs-list-comments",
  arguments: {
    documentId: "Document ID",
    includeDeleted: true,
  },
})
```
