How to connect CircleCI to Gmail
Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.
What you'll need
- An active CircleCI account with repository access
- An active Gmail account with permission to install apps
- A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
Create your Arahi AI account
Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.
Authenticate CircleCI
Click "Add Connection" and select CircleCI from the app directory. You'll be redirected to CircleCI's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.
Authenticate Gmail
Same process for Gmail. Click "Add Connection," select Gmail, and authorize access. Grant Arahi permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.
Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new commit pushed in circleci or new message received in gmail. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: send message in gmail. Map the data fields between CircleCI and Gmail so the right information lands in the right place.
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between CircleCI and Gmail. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.
Why connect CircleCI and Gmail?

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about connecting CircleCI and Gmail.
How do I connect CircleCI to Gmail?
Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both CircleCI and Gmail via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing developer tools events to communication actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
What can I automate between CircleCI and Gmail?
You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new CircleCI events to Gmail actions, trigger Gmail updates when CircleCI data changes, create Gmail records from CircleCI events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
Is the CircleCI and Gmail integration free?
Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your CircleCI-to-Gmail workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
Is my CircleCI data secure when connected to Gmail?
Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your CircleCI or Gmail passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your developer tools data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between CircleCI and Gmail?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either CircleCI or Gmail. For example, create a workflow where CircleCI events update Gmail, and a separate one where Gmail changes sync back to CircleCI. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect CircleCI and Gmail?
No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use CircleCI and Gmail, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
