DailyBot support for Gmail accounts

DailyBot now supports Gmail accounts, allowing you to create an organization and invite team members using personal Gmail addresses. No more GSuite-only restrictions—connect and collaborate freely! 

  • DailyBot allows Admins to invite guest Gmail users and they can interact with DailyBot in direct message in Google Chat. This works for organizations from any chat platform, e.g if a user from Slack invites a Gmail user as a Guest user, this Gmail user will be able to interact with DailyBot from their Google Chat account, allowing collaboration on multiple chat platforms.

  • Gmail users can create their own organizations, invite other Gmail users, add DailyBot to new spaces, and register through the web or by adding the bot to a space without a needing a GSuite account.
