SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Coordinating a team announcement across multiple channels requires manually sending an email and then posting a matching message in chat, which is repetitive and error-prone. This recipe automates both steps so the announcement reaches the team consistently through Gmail and Google Chat. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Dual-channel delivery: Sends the announcement as an email via Gmail and as a message in a Google Chat space. - Single-command steps: Uses the gws CLI with explicit recipient, subject, body, and space parameters. - Use Case: When a policy change must reach the whole team, run this recipe to email team@company.com with the details and post a notification in the team's Google Chat space pointing them to the email. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to send a team announcement with your subject and body via Gmail and post a matching notification to your Google Chat space using this recipe.

Frequently Asked Questions about recipe-send-team-announcement

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I send a team announcement to both Gmail and Google Chat?▼

Use the gws CLI to send an email with gws gmail +send specifying recipient, subject, and body, then post a message with gws chat +send to the target space. This recipe chains both commands in sequence.

What tools are required to send Gmail and Google Chat messages from the command line?▼

This recipe requires the gws CLI binary plus the gws-gmail and gws-chat skills. The gws tool provides the gmail +send and chat +send subcommands used for delivery.

Can I customize the recipients and message content in this announcement recipe?▼

Yes, the email recipient, subject, body, and the Chat space identifier are all parameters in the gws commands. Replace team@company.com and spaces/TEAM_SPACE with your actual addresses and space ID.

Why does the announcement fail to send to Google Chat?▼

Failures typically occur when the space identifier is invalid or the gws-chat skill is not loaded. Verify the space ID format (spaces/TEAM_SPACE) and confirm both prerequisite skills are available before running the recipe.

What are the limitations of sending announcements with this recipe?▼

The recipe sends a fixed two-step sequence with no scheduling, attachments, or delivery confirmation logic. It depends entirely on the gws CLI and its Gmail and Chat integrations being configured and authenticated.
