Draft client welcome emails from new Coda docs
Prepare a thoughtful welcome message when the client workspace is created, then review it on your own terms.
Trigger
New Coda Document Trigger
Triggers when a new Coda document is created.
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
Client setup can be complete in Coda while the welcome email remains an unfinished task competing for attention.

- Keeps a human review before sending
- Uses the current workspace context
