Questions about this workflow
What is required to reply in a thread?
The thread must be accessible to the Gmail account, and the action needs its valid thread ID and correctly formatted email addresses.
Can the workflow reply without a thread ID?
No. Provide the thread ID in the webhook context or use a different workflow that creates a new draft or email.
