Publish Gmail Add-ons to your domain
January 25, 2018
Posted by Bikin Chiu, Software Engineer, Gmail
We
extended the Gmail Add-on preview
toward the end of last year, so that developers can bring the functionality of
business apps
they rely on directly into Gmail. Now, we’re also making it easier for you to develop and publish Gmail Add-ons
domain-wide
. Create add-ons for users to access tools directly in their inbox, like your company directory, HR tools or other CRM solutions.
You can now:
Publish Gmail Add-ons
to users in your G Suite domain.
This lets you build and deploy custom add-ons for workflows or processes that are unique to your company.
Install Gmail Add-ons for G Suite accounts
before
they’re published.
This way, you can test your add-on before releasing widely in the workplace.
Plus, G Suite admins
can install add-ons for their domains
.
This helps G Suite users perform domain-wide installs for any add-on you build, so more people have the chance to try your add-on (or experiment with add-ons domain-wide).
Check out
this video
to see what it’s like to build an add-on then start building it yourself with this hands-on
codelab
. You can also view
already-built add-ons
in the
G Suite Marketplace
. Or, if you have another project in mind,
submit your add-on idea
for consideration.
We’re on a mission to make work easier and a big part of that means giving you the tools you need to speed up workflows. Build on!
3 new tools to help improve your Apps Script development and management experience
January 11, 2018
Posted by Ted Bradley, Product Manager, G Suite Developer Platform, Paul McReynolds, Product Manager, G Suite Developer Platform and Grant Timmerman, Developer Programs Engineer, G Suite Developer Relations
Apps Script has come a long way since we first launched scripting with Google Sheets. Now, Apps Script supports more than 5 million weekly active scripts that are integrated with a
host
of G Suite apps, and more than 1 billion daily executions.
As developers increasingly rely on Apps Script for mission-critical enterprise applications, we've redoubled our efforts to improve its power, reliability and operational monitoring, like our recently announced
integration with Stackdriver
for logging and error reporting. Today, we’re providing three new tools to help further improve your workflows and manage Apps Script projects:
Apps Script dashboard
, to help you manage, debug and monitor all of your projects in one place.
Apps Script API
, so you can programmatically manage Apps Script source files, versions and deployments.
Apps Script Command Line Interface
, for easy access to Apps Script API functionality from your terminal and shell scripts.
Apps Script dashboard
Over the next few weeks we’ll be making a new dashboard available to help you manage, debug and monitor all of your Apps Script projects from one place.
In this new dashboard—available at
script.google.com
—you will be able to:
View and search all of your projects.
Monitor the health and usage of projects you care about.
View details about individual projects.
View a log of project executions and terminate long-running executions.
Check out the
documentation
for more detail on the dashboard. If you encounter any issues, please use the feedback link in the left column of the new dashboard or
file a bug
.
Apps Script API
The new Apps Script dashboard is built on top of a powerful new Apps Script API which replaces and extends the
Execution API
. This new
Apps Script API
provides a RESTful interface for developers to create, manage, deploy and execute their scripts from their preferred programming language. This gives you control to create development workflows and deployment strategies that fit your needs. With this new API, you can:
Create, read, update and delete script projects, source files and versions.
Manage project deployments and entry points (
web app
,
add-on
,
execution
).
Obtain project execution metrics and process data.
Run script functions.
To learn more about the new Apps Script API, check out the
documentation
. If you encounter any issues please ask a question on
Stack Overflow
or
file a bug
.
Apps Script Command Line Interface
Lastly, we’re pleased to introduce the first open-source client of the Apps Script API, a command-line interface tool called
clasp
(
C
ommand
L
ine
A
pps
S
cript
P
rojects).
clasp
allows you to access the management functionality of the Apps Script API with intuitive terminal commands and is available as an
open-source project on GitHub
.
clasp
allows developers to create, pull and push Apps Script projects, plus manage deployments and versions with terminal commands and shell scripts.
clasp
also allows you to write and maintain your Apps Script projects using the development tools of your choice including your native IDE, Git and GitHub.
To get started, try the
clasp
codelab
. You can file issues or ask questions on the
clasp
project GitHub page
.
We’re doubling down on powerful platforms like Apps Script. We hope these new additions help ease your development process.
