Turn a sent email into a ready scan link
When a message includes an ID that needs scanning, Notis can prepare the CodeREADr link for quick access.
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
Generate Scan Link
Tool to generate a CodeREADr scan link URI. Use when you want to open the CodeREADr app’s scanner pre-filled with a specific ID.
Why this helps
A scan ID in an email can require extra steps to locate it and open the scanner with the right value.
- Reduce manual copying of an ID into a scan workflow.
- Make the next scanning step easier to start from sent email context.
- Get a run report showing the result of the automation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and CodeREADr once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis which sent messages to consider and to generate a CodeREADr scan link for the specific ID in the message.
- 4Choose Email Sent as the trigger, then select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real sent email containing an ID and review the generated link in the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Does this scan the barcode automatically?
No. The action generates a CodeREADr scan link URI to open the app scanner with a specific ID. A person still uses the scanning app.
What if the email contains more than one possible ID?
Make the intended ID clear in your instruction or email. Test with a real example and review the run report to confirm the link uses the right value.
