Block 1 · Cowork
What is Cowork?
A teammate that opens your files, does the work, and hands it back finished.
Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, images - it opens them, edits them, and gives them back.
Claude shows its progress and asks before sensitive actions.
Describe the job, walk away, come back to finished work.
Connect Claude to your real tools
Connectors let Cowork read, write, and act inside the apps you already use.
How Connectors Work
Connect an app once. Then choose it when Claude needs it.
1. Set up connectors in Customize
2. Claude uses them in your tasks
Example: “Summarize my important emails.” Claude uses Gmail and gives you a clean summary with draft replies.
Let's Try Together
📧 Try the Gmail Connector
Cowork → Customize → Connectors → find Gmail → click + → sign in to Google
Click New task in the sidebar. Check that Gmail shows in your connectors.
Paste this prompt
Summarize my important emails from the last 48 hours. Group them by sender, flag anything that needs a reply today, and tell me what I can safely ignore. Then draft quick replies for the top 3.
About 30 seconds - your whole inbox sorted, with replies ready to send.
Let's Try Together
🎨 Try the Canva Connector
Cowork → Customize → Connectors → find Canva → click + → log in to Canva
Click New task. Check that Canva shows in your connectors.
Paste this prompt
Create a professional Instagram post for my business [your business name]. Use Canva to design it. The post should announce [a promotion, event, or new product]. Use modern, clean design with bold text.
Claude designs it straight into Canva - open your account and keep editing.
Let it finish.
Wait for your Gmail or Canva result to land - then show your neighbour what you made.
Done early? Add one more connector and try it. · Hand up if you need help.
