Turn stale records into follow-up drafts

Let a scheduled review find records that need a nudge and prepare the message for your review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Fetch emails

Fetches a list of email messages from a gmail account, supporting filtering, pagination, and optional full content retrieval.

Why this helps

Follow-ups become easy to miss when there is no regular moment to scan open records.

  • Collects follow-up candidates in a repeatable review
  • Prepares drafts without sending them
  • Uses a stale rule you define

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for stale-record follow-up.
  • 3Describe in one instruction which records to review, what counts as stale, and what draft to create.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real record and verify the draft and source details.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know a record is stale?

Provide a clear rule and make sure the required date or status information is available in the records Notis can review.

Does the scheduled review send the follow-up?

No. This workflow creates Gmail drafts for you to review.
