Notis

Create an inbox label when a document starts a project

Give new project correspondence a clear home in Gmail as soon as its documents arrive.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create label

Creates a new label with a unique name in the specified user's gmail account.

Why this helps

A new project can start with a document before there is a consistent place to organize the email around it.

  • Create a project label from document context.
  • Keep related conversations easier to group.
  • Avoid inventing a label when the project name is unclear.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Aryn and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the project name in the submitted document and create a uniquely named Gmail label only when the project name is explicit; report unclear names for review.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real project document and confirm the label name is unique and recognizable.

Questions about this workflow

Does this apply the label to a thread?

No. It creates the Gmail label. Applying the label to messages or threads is a separate action.

What if the document has no project name?

The instruction tells Notis to report the missing or unclear name instead of creating a guessed label.
