Actions

Actions tagged Write create, update, or delete data. In chat and agent paths they pause for your confirmation before running; workflows treat their deterministic wiring as implicit consent. Agent tools covers how to scope which actions an agent may use.
Spend & quota
Google Drive is governed per organization: an admin sets a monetary spend cap and a monthly call quota. A quota of 0 disables the integration — it never means unlimited. See the Integrations overview for the full governance model.
