What the app does
Sends Amazon Ops Weekly notifications for successful runs, failed runs, and conditions requiring manual handling.
Operational email notifications
Clear alerts when the weekly workflow needs attention.
Amazon Ops Gmail Alerts is a private operations utility that sends email notifications about Amazon Ops Weekly automation results. It requests one Google permission—Gmail API gmail.send—and uses it only to send those alerts.

Permission boundary
Sending only means sending only.
The requested scope is deliberately narrow. It allows the application to send operational alert emails from the Google account that an authorized operator connects.
What the app does not do
It does not use this permission to read the inbox, retrieve existing messages, modify messages or labels, or delete any existing email.
Requested OAuth scope
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send
How notifications move
A small, auditable delivery path.
-
01
Weekly event
The automation records a success, retryable failure, or manual-action condition.
-
02
Notification outbox
An eligible notification is queued locally. Duplicate notices for the same unchanged condition are suppressed.
-
03
Gmail delivery
When authorized and enabled, the application uses
gmail.sendto deliver the operational alert. -
04
Delivery record
A delivery failure remains in the outbox for retry and does not change the Weekly run result.
Data discipline
Operational records, with defined limits.
The notification service follows the existing Amazon Ops production logging and retention rules. The saved Gmail Alerts OAuth Client configuration remains outside this public website. If a sending token is generated after future user authorization, it will also remain outside the website and will be kept separate from the existing Gmail read-only credential.
Review all data practices- Production events
- Retained for 90 days
- Sent notifications
- May be removed after 30 days
- Pending or failed items
- Retained until sent or manually resolved
- Never written to production logs
- OAuth tokens, secrets, authorization headers, cookies, Gmail message bodies, or signed URLs
Transparent by design.
Review how Google user data is handled before authorizing the application.
