Two optional workspace features round out the connection: Contacts and Tasks. Grant either when connecting, or add them later with Update Features.

​
Contacts

With the Contacts feature granted, your assistant can look people up in the connected account’s address book — Google Contacts or Microsoft contacts. That means when you say “email Priya about the invoice”, your assistant can find the right Priya and her address from your contacts, rather than asking you to spell it out.
This is read-only access to the workspace address book, and it’s separate from your assistant’s own contact list — the people it actively communicates with, each with their phone, email, WhatsApp, and preferences. Your assistant maintains that list itself as it works with you; the workspace address book is a reference it can consult.

​
Tasks

With the Tasks feature granted, your assistant can read and manage the connected account’s to-do lists — Google Tasks or Microsoft To Do.
  • “What’s on my to-do list today?”
  • “Add ‘renew the insurance’ to my tasks for Friday.”
  • “Mark the invoice task as done.”
Don’t confuse workspace tasks with your assistant’s own Tasks tab in the Console. Workspace tasks are your to-do list in Google/Microsoft. Console Tasks are jobs you give the assistant itself — scheduled reports, recurring reminders, background work it performs for you.
