Organize a visitor email when its handoff arrives
Use a visitor handoff to update labels on a known Gmail message and keep the next step easier to find.
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
Important visitor emails can blend into the inbox without a consistent way to mark their status.
- Add or remove labels on a specific message.
- Apply a clear status rule described in plain language.
- Keep an identified visitor email easier to find.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bread & Butter and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from a channel.
- 3In one instruction, specify how to update labels for the supplied accessible message, using existing label IDs when required.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real message and valid label IDs from Gmail.
Questions about this workflow
Where do custom label IDs come from?
Use Gmail's List Gmail labels action to retrieve current label IDs. The message and labels must be valid.
Does this label a whole thread?
No. This action changes labels on a message. Use the thread label action for a whole thread.
