Send a contextual email from a webhook request

Give Notis the purpose and context, then let Apipie AI prepare an email for Gmail to send.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Send Email

Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.

Why this helps

Important outreach gets delayed when the context is scattered and the first draft takes too long to write.

  • Turn supplied context into a complete email draft.
  • Start the workflow from an HTTP request.
  • Send through the connected Gmail account.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apipie AI and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis what email to write from the supplied context, who should receive it, and to send it with Gmail.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the generated message and recipient.

Questions about this workflow

What information should the webhook request include?

Include the recipient and the relevant purpose, facts, and tone. Any details not included or otherwise supplied to Notis may be missing from the generated email.

Does this workflow create a draft first?

No. It uses Gmail's Send Email action. Test the instruction carefully and confirm that the supplied context supports the message.
