Create Gmail drafts from submitted WhatsApp conversations
Capture a conversation when it needs an email follow-up, then review a draft in Gmail.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
A useful conversation can end without a clear follow-up, leaving you to find the context and compose an email later.
- Turn submitted conversation context into a draft.
- Keep the email reviewable before sending.
- Include only information present in the supplied conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail once in the Notis portal and make the WhatsApp conversation available in the webhook request.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis: For each webhook request containing a WhatsApp conversation and an actionable email follow-up, create a concise Gmail draft using only supplied details; report missing recipient or context.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test by submitting one real example and review the resulting draft in Gmail.
Questions about this workflow
Does the webhook read TimelinesAI chats by itself?
No. The webhook starts the automation with the conversation details supplied in its request.
Is the created email sent?
