Slashy’s assistant emails people for you, like when it schedules a meeting or follows up on a thread. Right now it sends from slashy@slashy.com. Connect a company mailbox so people see your company instead. Here is what the people your assistant emails will see: An email from Assistant at assistant@yourcompany.com offering meeting times to a client

Before you start

  • Your company email runs on Google Workspace.
  • You, or someone on your team, can add users in Google Admin.
Adding a user in Google Workspace may use a Workspace license. Your Workspace admin can confirm.

Set it up

1

Open Google Admin

Go to admin.google.com and sign in with a Workspace admin account.
2

Add a user for your assistant

Open Directory → Users → Add new user. Pick a name people will recognize, such as Assistant or Scheduling, and an address such as assistant@yourcompany.com.
3

Connect it in Slashy

In Slashy, open Settings → Account → Assistant Email and select Connect.
4

Sign in as the assistant, not yourself

When Google asks you to choose an account, pick Use another account and sign in with assistant@yourcompany.com. Allow the requested permissions.
Your assistant now emails people from the new address. Settings → Account → Assistant Email shows the connected mailbox.

Use it

CC the new address on any thread you want handed off. The assistant replies from that address.

Common questions

Send these steps to whoever manages your company’s Google Workspace, usually IT. Once they create the mailbox and share its sign-in with you, finish the last two steps yourself.
Your Workspace admin needs to allow Slashy. See Connecting Gmail for what to send them.
The address you signed in with is already one of your inboxes in Slashy. Your assistant needs a mailbox of its own, so create a separate user as in step 2.
The account you picked has no Gmail inbox, which happens with Google Groups and aliases. Create a full user in Directory → Users instead.
Open Settings → Account → Assistant Email and select Disconnect. New handoffs use slashy@slashy.com again. Conversations that already ran through your company address stay separate.
