Odoo has many modules (CRM, Sales, Inventory, Accounting, HR, Manufacturing, etc.). The external connection (MCP) works with all installed modules in your Odoo instance.
Multi-Tool: Connecting Gmail and Odoo for a Unified Overview
See a real-world example of how WonkaChat connects to both Gmail and Odoo to provide a unified view of your Odoo contacts, triggered from your email context.
Connect Gmail and Odoo with WonkaChat to instantly see who you need to contact.
WonkaChat pulls your contacts from your CRM (e.g. Odoo) and creates a ready-to-send draft in your mailing system (e.g. Gmail) with all the details.
Effortlessly bridge information between systems and take action in a single step.

The real power of external connections (MCP) comes from combining multiple business systems:
Research to Documentation
Business Systems: Google Drive + OdooâSearch my Google Drive for market research files, summarize the findings, and create a summary page in Odooâ
Issue to Communication
Business Systems: GitHub + SlackâFind critical issues in the main repo and post a summary to #engineering channel on Slackâ
Sales Pipeline to Email
Business Systems: Salesforce + OutlookâShow me opportunities closing this week and draft follow-up emails for each contactâ
Task Sync
Business Systems: Jira + ClickUpâFind completed tasks in Jira this week and summarize them for my weekly update in ClickUpâ
Meeting Preparation
Business Systems: Outlook + Google Drive + OdooâGet tomorrowâs meeting agenda from Outlook, find related documents in Drive, and create a prep page in Odooâ
Customer Intelligence
Business Systems: Salesforce + Outlook + SlackâGather all information about Acme Corp: Salesforce account, recent emails, and Slack mentionsâ
Verify permissions: Try read operations before write operations
Explore capabilities: Ask âWhat can you do with [business system]?â
Gradually increase complexity: Start simple, then combine operations
Donât worry about getting the query perfect. Just describe what you want in natural language and the AI will figure out the right business system operations.
Be Specific When Needed
While AI handles natural language well, specific details improve results:Less Specific:
Copy
"Show me emails"
Result: May return too many results or default to todayMore Specific:
Copy
"Show me unread emails from my manager this week"
Result: Precisely filtered resultsEven More Specific:
Copy
"Find emails from john@company.com with 'budget' in subject, received in the last 30 days"
Result: Exactly what you need
Use Time Constraints
Adding time boundaries improves performance and relevance:
âtodayâ / âthis weekâ / âthis monthâ
âin the last 7 daysâ
âbetween January 1 and January 31â
âafter March 15thâ
âbefore the end of Q2â
Example:
Copy
"Show me Slack messages in #engineering from yesterday"
Much faster than querying all messages ever sent.
Leverage Multi-Step Requests
You can ask AI to perform multiple operations in sequence:
Copy
"Check my calendar for availability tomorrow afternoon, then email those times to sarah@company.com"
AI will:
Connect to the calendar
Find available slots
Connect to the email
Draft and send email
No need to break it into separate queries!
Review Before Action
For operations that modify data (send, create, update, delete):
Ask the AI to show you a preview before any changes are made
Review the proposed action thoroughly before approving it
Request modifications as needed: âMake the email more formalâ
Always verify recipient addresses and all critical information
Direct the AI when you want to pause: âDonât send this yet, just show me the draftâ
To enhance safety, we provide a Safe Mode that keeps you in control whenever agents or AI models perform actions. When Safe Mode is enabled, you must explicitly approve or reject all modifications before they take effect. Learn more in the Safe Mode: Human-in-the-Loop section.
Some actions (such as sending emails or creating orders) may be irreversible. Always double-check your intent before confirming the AI to proceed.
