Give Beeminder review emails their own Gmail label

Create a dedicated label for goal review mail so it is easier to find among a busy inbox.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create label

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

Why this helps

Goal review messages are hard to revisit when they blend into the rest of your inbox.

  • Create a dedicated place for review email
  • Make goal summaries easier to find later
  • Use a label name that reflects your workflow

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Beeminder and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Gmail label with a unique name for your Beeminder review workflow.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the label name is not already in use.

Questions about this workflow

Will this label automatically be added to messages?

No. This action creates a label. To apply a label to messages, use a separate automation with the Gmail label action.

Why must the name be unique?

Gmail requires a unique label name in the account. Choose a name that does not already exist.
