2Will VTiger workflows execute if I update/create a record in the extension?
Yes – to update and save we use vTiger webservices which means that when you save/update a record, it will execute standard vtiger process as you would save the record in vTiger itself.
3Can I move Mandatory fields to another block?
Yes, mandatory fields can be moved to any other block within the extension. Mandatory fields were added to a “Mandatory” block because they were not standard vtiger fields.
Only during the initial sync the fields are placed in the "Mandatory" blocks and then they can be moved to any other block.

Please refer to the documentation on how to configure those fields.
4What about permissions? do they transfer from vtiger?
We use webservices to view, create & update the data. The permissions are applied from within the profiles, groups, roles you configured in vTiger.

Currently it does not synchronize your contacts or calendar activities from your gmail contact list or calendar. You can enable the synchronization within vtiger, it’s part of the vtiger core functionality.
