Why this helps
Form requests get buried in email while you switch between inbox and Basin to act on them.
- Act on explicit form requests without manually starting setup.
- Keep the request context available when deciding the form's name and association.
- Avoid creating a form when the email does not clearly ask for one.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Basin once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Basin form for each new email that clearly requests one, using only details stated in the email and asking for missing required setup information.
- 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real form request email.
Questions about this workflow
Will every incoming email create a form?
The instruction should limit creation to emails that clearly request a new form. Other messages should not create one.
What if the email leaves out setup details?
Tell Notis how to handle missing required details, such as requesting clarification instead of guessing.
