Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.
Action
Search Images
Tool to search for images and their alt text. use after specifying search keywords to retrieve matching images.
Why this helps
Image details are scattered across email threads and libraries, making it easy to lose time searching or reuse the wrong asset.
- Find likely matching assets without switching between email and the image library.
- See existing alt text alongside the matching images.
- Keep the search grounded in keywords or asset names present in the email.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Alttext ai once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named for finding images from email requests.
- 3Tell Notis to identify image names or search keywords in each new email, search Alttext ai, and report matching images with their alt text.
- 4Choose New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real email that mentions an image or asset.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow generate or change alt text?
No. It searches Alttext ai for matching images and returns their existing alt text. The listed action does not generate or update image alt text.
What if the email does not identify an image?
Notis can report that it did not find useful image search terms, rather than guessing which asset the sender meant.
