Why this helps
Project setup waits in the inbox while teams manually re-enter the same request details.
- Reduce manual re-entry for new project setup.
- Act on explicit project requests while they are fresh.
- Keep the project creation step tied to the originating request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Crowdin once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3Describe which emails count as approved project requests and include the project details Crowdin needs.
- 4Pick the New Gmail Message Received trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real approved request and verify the project details in Crowdin.
Questions about this workflow
Can it create a project if key details are missing?
Your instruction should tell Notis to report missing details and wait for a complete request before creating the project.
Can it also upload files?
Project creation is one action. File upload and adding files to the project are separate steps that can be automated separately.
