Read and write data to Google, including Google Sheets, Calendar, and Docs
You connect Google once through its own sign-in screen; Malleable never sees your password. Each workflow chooses whose connected account its Google actions run under: the workflow owner's, or that of the person who started the run.
What workflows can do with Google
