General
The app allows your team to receive real-time notifications about key events in Pipedrive directly within Google Chat ™. This integration helps keep stakeholders informed, improves response times, and fosters collaboration by bringing crucial deal updates into the communication tool your team already uses.
To use Pipedrive for Google Chat ™, you and your team members need active subscriptions to both a Pipedrive account and a Google Workspace account.
All of them! Our app is designed to work with every Pipedrive and Google Workspace plan.
Yes, absolutely. Our app does not alter your existing Pipedrive notification settings. It simply adds the power of Google Chat ™ notifications on top, ensuring your team gets key deal updates where you're already collaborating. Pipedrive is the tool, and our app is the cherry on top!
We’re a small software shop located in France & Estonia called Gondor Labs. We believe in helping companies become more productive by eliminating small roadblocks for them.
Notifications
Yes! Pipedrive for Google Chat™ lets you group notifications by deal using Google Chat™ threads. Instead of receiving separate messages for every update, all activity about the same deal is collected in a single, easy-to-follow conversation thread.
There are two independent settings for this:
- Group personal notifications by deal — your personal direct message notifications about the same deal are grouped into one thread. Requires at least one personal notification type to be enabled.
- Group space notifications by deal — notifications sent to a shared Google Chat™ space are grouped into one thread per deal. Requires at least one space to be selected.
Both options are available in the Settings page of the Pipedrive for Google Chat™ app. See our guide for step-by-step instructions.
Available Commands
You can use simple chat commands to quickly connect and manage your setup without leaving Google Chat ™.
Available Commands:
/connectme– Get a secure link to connect your Google account with Pipedrive for Google Chat ™.
How to use: Type the command in a direct message with the app, or in a space where the app is added. You will receive a private link to complete the connection.

Once the connection is established, you can start configuring your notifications. See our guide for more details.
The initial setup needs to be done by a Pipedrive admin, after that any regular user can perform an individual installation of our app through the Pipedrive & Google Workspace marketplaces.
