Find the right contact context for HR follow-up

Gather relevant past correspondence for a specific HR follow-up so you can move forward with the right context.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

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-up gets delayed when the right prior contact or thread is hard to find across inbox history.

  • Search for relevant past correspondence using a focused request.
  • Bring useful email context into the next HR action.
  • Keep contact decisions grounded in accessible records and messages.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect BambooHR and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the employee reference and stated follow-up purpose to find relevant Gmail messages and return the contact context found.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one actual follow-up request and review returned messages.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow send a message?

No. It searches for relevant Gmail messages and returns context for you to use.

What should the webhook request include?

Include a BambooHR employee reference and a narrow follow-up purpose so the search has a clear scope.
