Google Docs

AllMCP gives your agent read access to Google Docs: list documents in Drive, read full document content as plain text, and export any document the user shares as a link or file ID.

All providers How connecting works

---

Point your client at AllMCP

Connect your MCP client to the AllMCP endpoint and authenticate with your API key.

https://go.allmcp.co/mcp/

Send your key on every request using either header:

X-API-Key: allmcp_xxx

Authorization: Bearer allmcp_xxx

If you run agents for more than one of your own customers, add ?user_id=... (and optionally ?org_id=...) to the endpoint URL so each customer’s Google connection stays separate.

Connect

Google Docs uses OAuth2, so there are no tokens to copy by hand.

1. Ask your agent to connect Google Docs

   Tell your agent to connect the google_docs provider. It returns a secure Google sign-in link.

2. Grant access in your browser

   Open the link, sign in to Google, and approve the requested access. That is the only manual step.

Tip

AllMCP handles consent and token refresh for you. Once you have approved access in Google, your agent stays connected. You only need to sign in again if you revoke access from your Google account.

Tools by category

Once you are connected, your agent can use the Google Docs tools below.

Files

List and search Google Docs files in Drive.

Tool	Description
google_docs_list_files	Lists the Google Docs files you have access to in Google Drive. Supports name search and pagination.
google_docs_get_file_metadata	Returns Drive-level metadata for one document: name, owner, timestamps, and share link.

Documents

Read document content and export as plain text.

Tool	Description
google_docs_get_document	Reads a Google Docs document via the Docs API and returns the title, full plain-text content, and word count. Accepts a bare document ID or a full docs.google.com URL.
google_docs_export_as_text	Exports a document as plain text via the Drive export endpoint. An alternative to get_document that handles headers, footers, and footnotes differently.

Common workflows

Just describe what you want in plain language — your agent picks the right tools.

Read a document

Read the Google Doc at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BxiMVs0.../edit

Summarize a document

Summarize the document with ID 1BxiMVs0XRA5nFMdKvBdBZjgmUUqptlbs74OgVE2upms

Find a document by name

Find the document called "Q3 Strategy" and read its contents

Export as text

Export the Google Doc at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BxiMVs0.../edit as plain text

---

Notes

Note

You can share a URL or a document ID. Both google_docs_get_document and google_docs_export_as_text accept either a full docs.google.com link or a bare document ID — your agent handles the extraction automatically.

Caution

Document must be accessible to the connected account. If a document is owned by a different Google account, ask the owner to share it with your connected email address. Do not make documents public to work around access issues.

Note

Images and drawings are not readable. Only text content is extracted. If a document contains charts or images, their visual content is not available — only any surrounding text.
