Google introduced a new platform enabling developers to integrate third-party apps with Search and Gemini.

Developers can use the Google Connected Console to register, test, and submit integrations, while tracking traffic, latency, and error rates for live apps.

This feature allows users to connect third-party services and perform specific actions through Google’s AI tools. For example, someone can connect to Canva to design a brochure or YouTube Music to create a playlist.
