Keep 7shifts operations email organized
Use an incoming operations alert to find related email and apply a label you already use.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Modify email labels
Adds and/or removes specified gmail labels for a message; ensure `message id` and all `label ids` are valid (use 'listlabels' for custom label ids).
Why this helps
Operations email becomes hard to scan when related messages have no consistent label.
- Makes related messages easier to find later
- Applies a consistent existing label to matching messages
- Reduces manual inbox sorting
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 7shifts and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for operations email labeling.
- 3Tell Notis to find Gmail messages related to the incoming 7shifts notification and apply the existing label you name; use a valid label ID.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real notification and confirm that the intended Gmail message received the label.
Questions about this workflow
Can this create a new Gmail label?
This workflow modifies labels on messages, so the label must already exist. Use Gmail's label list to identify custom labels.
What if there is no related email?
Ask Notis to report that no matching message was found instead of attempting to label a message.
