Turn Clay prospect research into a ready-to-review Gmail draft
Send the useful context forward and start with a draft that already knows why this prospect may matter.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Prospect research gets scattered across Clay tables, leaving founders to rebuild context before every email.
- Carry relevant company and contact context into a Gmail draft.
- Keep outreach reviewable before anything is sent.
- Reduce the time spent switching between research and email.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Clay and Gmail once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: draft a concise prospect email using the context in each incoming Clay record.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Clay prospect and review the Gmail draft.
Questions about this workflow
Does this send the email automatically?
No. This workflow creates a Gmail draft for you to review and send.
What starts the automation?
A webhook starts it when Clay sends a request to the Notis webhook.
Can the draft use any prospect details?
It can use details included in the webhook data. If an important detail is missing, Notis should leave it out rather than invent it.
