In the digital age, our inboxes are often inundated with a never-ending stream of emails. Whether you’re sifting through vital client correspondence, essential communications from partners, or critical updates from colleagues, managing an overflowing inbox can be a daunting task. As the volume of emails continues to skyrocket, manual filtering and categorizing become increasingly challenging, and crucial emails risk being overlooked. While there are email management tools available, constantly switching platforms only complicates the process and slows down productivity.
To make Gmail, a core communication platform, more efficient, AITable.ai offers a simple yet powerful automated solution.
By setting up automated workflows and custom rules, AITable.ai can automatically add specific labels to emails from clients, partners, or colleagues. This makes it possible for you to quickly locate key emails without manual intervention. It provides a neat and organized inbox, significantly increases email management efficiency, and prevents vital information from being buried.
The Power of AITable.ai
AITable.ai is a game-changer in the realm of workflow automation. It simplifies processes with a visual database and boasts connectivity to over 6,000+ apps via Albato, Zapier, Make, Pabbly, and Activepieces.
In the context of this article, we will focus on an automation process that uses Make to scrutinize Gmail emails and senders. It then matches this information with email data in AITable.ai to label emails from senders listed in the AITable.ai table. This enables centralized viewing and enhanced organization.
A Step-By-Step Guide to Automating Gmail Labels with AITable.ai
To start, create a new table in AITable, ensuring it includes an ‘Email’ field to record the email addresses you wish to label.
Then, navigate to ‘Labels’ in Gmail’s settings and create the label you want to apply.
Subsequently, select ‘Multiple inboxes’ under ‘Inbox type’ in the settings and create a new section, specifying the ‘Search query’ and ‘Section name’. This completes the initial preparation.
Next, create a new scenario in Make, selecting Gmail as the first module. Set the action as ‘watch Emails’. Connect your Gmail account. Then, choose the folder. Define the email’s Query rules. (Instructions can be found on the configuration panel).
The next module is AITable.ai, with the action set as ‘Search records’. Connect your AITable.ai account and select the corresponding space and datasheet. Set the filter to select the ‘Email’ field, with the condition being equal to the sender email address variable from Gmail.
The final module should be Gmail, with the action set to ‘Modify Email Labels’. Fill in the required configuration information, using the Gmail Message ID variable obtained in the first step. For ‘Labels to add’, select the label you wish to apply.
An essential step in this process is the implementation of a filter between the second and third modules. This filter, which you can name ‘Stop if No Match,’ serves a crucial function. It verifies the existence of the record ID variable obtained during the second step. If no matching record ID is found, the filter halts the automation process. This ensures that you only apply labels to emails from senders listed in the AITable.ai table, thus maintaining the integrity and accuracy of your automated labeling system.
Test the automation, and once successful, the workflow is complete.
