# Frequently Asked Questions

> Common questions and simple answers for getting started with your AI assistant.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="I've just been given access to Gemini through my work Google account. What should I know?">
    Nice one! Gemini is Google's AI assistant, and if you're using Google Workspace, you'll find it integrated into apps like Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and Slides.

    Look for the Gemini icon (a star shape) in your sidebar or toolbar. You can ask it to help draft emails, create documents, analyse data in sheets, or generate presentation content. It works conversationally, so just type what you need in plain English.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can Gemini access and read my Google Drive files?">
    Yes, depending on how your organisation has set things up. Gemini can often search through and reference files in your Google Drive to help answer questions or pull relevant information. However, your admin controls what Gemini can and can't access, so if it's not finding something you expect, your IT team may have restricted certain folders or file types for security reasons.

  <Accordion title="I asked Gemini to help with a spreadsheet but the output wasn't quite right. What went wrong?">
    Like most AI tools, Gemini works best with well-organised data. If your spreadsheet has unusual formatting, merged cells, or unclear headers, it might misinterpret what you're asking for.

    Try cleaning up your data structure first - clear column headers, consistent formatting, no blank rows in the middle of your data. Then give it another go with a specific, clear request.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do I get Gemini to match our company's writing style?">
    You can include style instructions in your request. For example: "Write this in a professional but friendly tone" or "Keep it concise and avoid technical jargon." You can also paste in an example of your company's preferred style and ask Gemini to match it.

    The more guidance you give, the closer it'll get to what you're after.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is there a limit to how much I can use Gemini?">
    Usage limits depend on your organisation's Google Workspace plan. Some plans have caps on the number of queries or features you can access.

    If you notice things slowing down or features becoming unavailable, it might be a usage limit kicking in. Check with your IT admin if you're unsure about what's included in your plan.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Gemini help me with emails in Gmail?">
    Absolutely - this is one of the handiest features. In Gmail, you can use Gemini to draft replies, summarise long email threads, or even help you compose messages from scratch.

    Look for the "Help me write" option when composing an email, or use the Gemini sidebar to ask questions about emails in your inbox.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I'm concerned about privacy when using Gemini with work documents. What's the deal?">
    Your organisation's admin controls data privacy settings for Gemini. In enterprise setups, your data typically stays within your organisation's Google Workspace environment and isn't used to train general AI models.

    That said, always follow your company's guidelines about what types of documents are appropriate to share with AI tools. When in doubt, check with your IT or security team.
