Create Daffy gifts from giving commitment emails

Send the commitment email and let Notis carry the gift details into Daffy, so the follow-through does not get lost between inbox and giving account.

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 Gift

Tool to create a new charitable gift. use when you have recipient details and amount ready.

Why this helps

A decision to give can be easy to lose track of once the email is sent and other founder work takes over.

  • Reduce duplicate entry after making a giving commitment.
  • Keep the intended charity and amount close to the email that confirms them.
  • Use a sent message as the prompt for a Daffy gift.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Daffy once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Daffy gift when a sent email clearly confirms a nonprofit and amount, and to ask you when either detail is unclear.
  • 4Choose Gmail Email Sent as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real commitment email and review the resulting gift.

Questions about this workflow

What should the sent email include?

It should make the intended nonprofit and gift amount clear. Notis should ask you to clarify missing or ambiguous details before creating a gift.

Does this run when I receive an email?

No. This workflow uses the Gmail Email Sent trigger, so it starts after a message is sent by your authenticated Gmail user.
