Give client email requests a clear next step

Turn an actionable request from a client into a Clientary task before it disappears in the inbox.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Create Task

Tool to create a new task in Clientary. Use when you need to create a task with a title, optionally associating it with a project and assignee.

Why this helps

Important client requests can get buried in email when there is no task to bring them back to your attention.

  • Capture actionable requests as trackable tasks.
  • Keep non-actionable conversation out of the task list.
  • See unclear requests in the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Clientary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe the outcome: create a Clientary task for each new Gmail message from a client that contains a clear action request; report requests whose task title or context is unclear.
  • 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real client request and review the task.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a task for every client email?

No. The instruction can limit task creation to messages that contain a clear action request.

Can it associate the task with a project?

Ask Notis to associate a project only when the email clearly identifies one. Otherwise have it report that the project needs your attention.
