Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

Action

Upload File

Uploads a file to a specified path in the user's dropbox, with options for handling existing files.

Why this helps

Useful attachments get lost among replies, follow-ups, and competing inbox tasks.

  • Keep incoming documents in one place
  • Reduce manual downloading and re-uploading
  • Make attachments easier to find later

  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then add a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to upload attachments from new emails to a chosen Dropbox folder.

  • 5Test with one real email that has an attachment.
