Bring the referenced Gmail message into Ably event triage
Give an event review the original email context without searching for the message by hand.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Fetch message by message ID
Fetches a specific email message by its id, provided the `message id` exists and is accessible to the authenticated `user id`.
Why this helps
An event can point to email that is hard to locate when you are already switching between tools.
- Retrieve the referenced message in the event workflow.
- Keep original email context close to the related event.
- Avoid manually searching Gmail for a known message.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want.
- 3Describe how the event provides a Gmail message id and what details to inspect.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real event and an accessible message id.
Questions about this workflow
What if the event has no message id?
The action requires a valid message id. Provide a way to identify one in the event or use a Gmail search action instead.
Can this fetch full content?
The action retrieves a specific message by id. Use the Fetch emails action when you need filtering and optional full content retrieval.
