Create PDFs from incoming email requests
Let Notis pick out document requests in Gmail and ask Craftmypdf to generate the PDF in the background.
Trigger
New Gmail Message Received Trigger
Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.
Action
Create PDF Asynchronously
Tool to queue asynchronous PDF generation via webhook. Use when you need to generate a PDF in the background and receive the result via a webhook.
Why this helps
Document requests get buried in the inbox, then take extra time to turn into a finished PDF.
- Reduce copying details from email into a document workflow.
- Keep document requests moving without switching apps.
- Receive the generated PDF result through Craftmypdf's webhook flow.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Craftmypdf once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, describe which incoming requests qualify, which template to use, and how to use the email details.
- 4Pick New Gmail Message Received Trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real request email and confirm the generated PDF is right.
Questions about this workflow
Can this generate a PDF for every email?
Tell Notis in your instruction which requests qualify. Notis uses the incoming message to decide whether the workflow applies.
Does this work without choosing a template?
Specify the template to use in your instruction. If you need to browse available templates first, use a separate automation with Craftmypdf's List PDF Templates action.
