Keep shared files with the BugHerd task
When you send a relevant file link, make it easier for the team to find it with the issue.
Trigger
Email Sent
Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.
Action
Create Attachment
Tool to add a new attachment to a task using an existing url. use when you have project and task ids and the external file url ready.
Why this helps
Files shared in email can be separated from the task they support.
- Keep relevant linked files close to the task.
- Avoid manually locating and adding shared file URLs.
- Preserve the connection between issue discussion and its reference material.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and BugHerd once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to identify relevant file URLs in sent emails and attach them to the existing related BugHerd task when project and task details are clear.
- 4Pick the Email Sent trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one sent email containing a usable file URL and a known task.
Questions about this workflow
Can this upload an attachment directly from my computer?
This workflow uses a file URL already present in the sent email. BugHerd's Create Attachment action requires an existing URL.
What if the message does not identify the task?
Provide a matching rule in your instruction. If the task cannot be identified confidently, ask Notis to report that for manual follow-up.
