Hi guys :wave:

I am building workflow using Pipedream and using gmail read scope. Curious if we need custom oauth verification from Google or can just use all functionalities using Pipdream oauth?

Depends on what you’re building. Are you building workflows or Connect?

Workflows are built in Pipedream Dashboard.

and then initialized and triggered through API calls for our app users through our platform

Thanks for clarifying, the Pipedream OAuth should work for most use cases like this

amazing, so my usecase is summarizing user’s email every 15 minutes using pipedream webhook.

user can use Pipedream oauth client to give access of scopes as step 1 of workflow.

as step 2, use ai to summarize all emails.

as step 3, send summary to user’s email.

Yep, should be all good with Pipedream’s OAuth
