Create a Coda table entry, when you send yourself an email
This is a Bardeen playbook. It's a pre-built automation template you can run in one-click to perform a repetitive task. Get started with our free Chrome extension.
How does this automation work?
Bardeen offers a unique automation that transforms the way you manage your tasks and notes by utilizing your email. If you're someone who sends themselves reminders or notes via email, this playbook will automatically capture that information and organize it into a Coda table for you. Simply send an email to your customized "+bardeen" address, and watch as Bardeen populates your Coda table, turning your quick notes into actionable items.
Here's how this workflow creates a Coda table entry from an email:
- Step 1: Email to Coda Trigger - Bardeen monitors your Gmail for any emails sent to your address with "+bardeen" in it, triggering the workflow. This allows you to quickly send information to Coda without leaving your inbox.
- Step 2: Create Coda Table Entry - After detecting the email, Bardeen creates a new entry in your specified Coda table with the data from the email. Coda combines documents and spreadsheets into a versatile canvas, perfect for organizing information from various sources.
