Questions about this workflow
Does every new Gmail message become a lead?
Describe the inquiry types you want Notis to recognize in the automation instruction. Notis can analyze the message, but it cannot infer your lead criteria unless you provide them.
What details can the workflow include?
The Gmail trigger supplies message metadata. Ask Notis to use relevant available email context and avoid assuming Bubble fields that your app does not support.
