# TypeScript typings for Gmail API v1 Access Gmail mailboxes including sending user email. For detailed description please check [documentation](https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/). ## Installing Install typings for Gmail API: ``` npm install @types/gapi.client.gmail@v1 --save-dev ``` ## Usage You need to initialize Google API client in your code: ```typescript gapi.load("client", () => { // now we can use gapi.client // ... }); ``` Then load api client wrapper: ```typescript gapi.client.load('gmail', 'v1', () => { // now we can use gapi.client.gmail // ... }); ``` Don't forget to authenticate your client before sending any request to resources: ```typescript // declare client_id registered in Google Developers Console var client_id = '', scope = [ // Read, send, delete, and manage your email 'https://mail.google.com/', // Manage drafts and send emails 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.compose', // Insert mail into your mailbox 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.insert', // Manage mailbox labels 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.labels', // View your email message metadata such as labels and headers, but not the email body 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.metadata', // View and modify but not delete your email 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify', // View your email messages and settings 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly', // Send email on your behalf 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send', // Manage your basic mail settings 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.settings.basic', // Manage your sensitive mail settings, including who can manage your mail 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.settings.sharing', ], immediate = true; // ... gapi.auth.authorize({ client_id: client_id, scope: scope, immediate: immediate }, authResult => { if (authResult && !authResult.error) { /* handle succesfull authorization */ } else { /* handle authorization error */ } }); ``` After that you can use Gmail API resources: ```typescript /* Gets the current user's Gmail profile. */ await gapi.client.users.getProfile({ userId: "userId", }); /* Stop receiving push notifications for the given user mailbox. */ await gapi.client.users.stop({ userId: "userId", }); /* Set up or update a push notification watch on the given user mailbox. */ await gapi.client.users.watch({ userId: "userId", }); ```
