Anyone needing to organize their Gmail inbox efficiently. It helps individuals and businesses automatically categorize incoming emails.
This workflow automatically reads new Gmail messages, uses AI to decide which labels fit best, and then adds those labels to the emails in your Gmail account. This keeps your inbox tidy without manual effort.
Set up this workflow by connecting your Gmail and OpenAI accounts. Define labels in your Gmail and match them in the workflow AI prompt and JSON schema. Make sure the polling interval for new emails meets your needs.
You need an n8n account, a Gmail account, and an OpenAI account with API access. You must also create the specified labels in your Gmail account before running the workflow.
You can change how often the workflow checks for new emails. Adjust the AI prompt and JSON schema to change the labels it assigns. You can also add more labels to fit your specific needs, both in Gmail and in the workflow settings.
