Key Features and Highlights

This workflow automates the conversion of emails from Gmail into structured pages within a Notion database. By integrating the OpenAI GPT-4 model, it intelligently extracts key information from emails to generate actionable task titles, detailed descriptions, and bullet points. It also automatically organizes email summaries and metadata, enabling efficient archiving and management of email content. The workflow supports automatic email status tagging to prevent duplicate processing and can automatically deactivate abnormal routes based on configuration, ensuring stable operation.

Core Problems Addressed

  • Inefficiency and complexity of manually filtering and organizing important email information
  • Difficulty in systematically storing and managing email content due to lack of structured records
  • Risk of duplicate or missed processing when handling multiple emails
  • Lack of automated integration between email and task management systems such as Notion

Use Cases

  • Enterprises or individuals needing to quickly convert important emails into tasks or documents for follow-up
  • Project management scenarios where communication emails are automatically archived in Notion to enhance team collaboration
  • Customer service or sales teams automatically organizing client emails to assist subsequent processing
  • Situations requiring structured storage and intelligent summarization of email content

Main Workflow Steps

  1. Gmail Trigger: Checks for new emails in the Gmail inbox every minute
  2. Email Filtering: Excludes emails that have been processed or marked as erroneous, processing only valid emails
  3. Extract Routing ID: Parses the corresponding Airtable routing ID from the email address
  4. Retrieve Routing Configuration: Reads the route’s active status and related settings from Airtable
  5. Intelligent Email Content Parsing:
    • Uses the OpenAI GPT-4 model to generate actionable tasks (title, description, key points)
    • Creates email summaries and extracts metadata (sender, subject, date)
  6. Format Notion Page Content: Constructs page block structures compliant with Notion API specifications
  7. Create Notion Page: Calls the Notion API to create a database page with the email information
  8. Email Tagging: Adds a “Processed” label to the email upon successful creation to prevent duplicate handling
  9. Error Handling and Notification: Automatically deactivates the corresponding route and sends an error notification email to the sender if creation fails
  10. Invalid Route Handling: Notifies the sender if no valid route is found and the email is not processed

Involved Systems and Services

  • Gmail: Email reception and label management
  • Airtable: Storage and management of email routing configurations (including active status and Notion database details)
  • Notion: Target database for creating structured email record pages
  • OpenAI GPT-4: Natural language processing for generating task descriptions and email summaries
  • n8n Workflow Automation Platform: Orchestrates and executes the entire workflow
