Introduction
Keep a searchable, shareable record of incoming emails by connecting Gmail to Google Sheets. Each time a new email arrives, this workflow pulls key details and saves them into a spreadsheet for easy tracking and reporting.
Benefits
- Creates a centralized email log for audits, operations, or customer support follow-ups
- Eliminates manual copy-pasting from Gmail into spreadsheets
- Makes email activity easy to filter, search, and share with your team
- Helps prevent missed messages by keeping an external record outside the inbox
Trigger Event
When a new email is received in Gmail (optionally filtered by subject, sender email, or label, and with a choice to trigger only on the first email in a thread or include replies).
Actions
- The automation reads the incoming email details from Gmail (sender email, subject, and message body).
- It formats the content (prioritizing plain text when available, otherwise saving the HTML body).
- It adds a new row in Google Sheets with the email’s sender, subject, and content, creating a continuously updated email register.
