Connect Google Docs to Raycast

Give Raycast governed access to Google Docs’s 21 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Google Docs to Raycast in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Raycast then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Google Docs in Runlayer

    Add Google Docs from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Raycast to Runlayer

    Users add the Runlayer Plugin to Raycast by following Runlayer’s setup guide. Raycast reaches Google Docs’s 21 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Google Docs

    Sign in the way Google Docs requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Google Docs from Raycast

    Google Docs’s approved tools appear in Raycast. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Raycast

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Raycast exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Google Docs call from Raycast passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Raycast as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Raycast yet, so control happens at the gateway.
