Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

View Video Details

Why this helps

Video ids in client messages are hard to act on when you still need to switch apps and locate the full record.

  • Retrieve complete metadata for a specific Amara video id.
  • Reduce app switching when responding to video project emails.
  • See relevant video details in the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Amara once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis: When a new email includes an Amara video id, retrieve that video's details and summarize the metadata in the report.
  • 4Choose the New Gmail Message Received trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real email containing an Amara video id.
