I have a new iPad Pro 6th generation
How do I get my gmail accounts to work on this device. Under the mail icon all that shows is iCloud. I don’t use that account, I use the gmail accounts. But can’t open them.
iPad, iOS 9

Presumably you are using the native Mail App. Have you added your Gmail accounts to your iPad?
Add an email account - Apple Support
Be aware that some email providers now require the use of App Specific Passwords when accessing mail over IMAP or POP3. If this applies to your email account, you will need to generate a unique password for your iPad email account - that will differ from your normal Account Password. As examples - AOL, Yahoo, Google, Microsoft all use App Specific Passwords when using anything other than their own email client Apps.
If you need to generate an App Specific Password, you’ll need to log-in to your Mail Providers account management webpage - using a web browser - and generate the Password from the appropriate account security page.
