External assistants

These open a third-party AI service outside the EU. The link passes it this page's address, and anything you ask there is processed by that provider under its own terms.

Imports your Drive files, including Shared Drives, and your Gmail threads with their attachments.

What it imports

Nordvec imports these from Google: files, email threads, and attachments.

Nordvec checks Google for changes on a schedule, and a document deleted in Google is removed at the next check.

Filtering searches by Google

Documents synced from Google carry these source_provider values. Pass one to /documents/search to restrict results to this connector:

  • google
  • gmail
curl https://nordvec.com/api/v1/documents/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NORDVEC_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "quarterly report", "sourceProvider": "google"}'

Connecting Google

Connect Google from Connectors in Nordvec. The connector reads with the account of the person who connects it. Documents from Google are private to the person who connected it until that person shares them. An API key reads only what is shared with the workspace, so it finds these documents once their owner shares them. Documents are stored in the EU; every processor that touches them is published with its jurisdiction and transfer basis at /subprocessors.

Google is treated as a privacy-sensitive personal source. Query text against it is never collected for product analytics, protecting sensitive personal content.
