Keep follow-up emails in a clear Gmail queue
Give messages that need action a place you can return to when it is time to follow up.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Modify email labels
Adds and/or removes specified gmail labels for a message; ensure `message id` and all `label ids` are valid (use 'listlabels' for custom label ids).
Why this helps
A message that needs a later response can disappear under new inbox traffic before you come back to it.
- Keep follow-up messages grouped using an existing label.
- Make your next inbox review easier to scan.
- Reduce dependence on remembering which message needs attention.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apollo and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction when to apply your existing follow-up label to a message id in the webhook request.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real message and verify the requested label id in Gmail.
Questions about this workflow
Does adding a label set a reminder?
No. Gmail labels organize messages. Choose a separate reminder process if you need a notification at a particular time.
Can the action use a label name?
The action requires valid label ids. Use Gmail's List Gmail labels action to find the id for an existing label.
