Generate task list from email when label is added and add list to Coda table

Bardeen's automation playbook transforms labeled emails into actionable tasks within Coda, leveraging the analytical prowess of OpenAI. For businesses looking to manage projects efficiently, this tool provides the means to instantly capture tasks from communication channels and directly populate project management tools, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. With OpenAI's advanced summarization and task extraction capabilities, you can automatically generate and organize your task list in Coda, saving time for more strategic work.

Here's how this workflow generates a task list from an email and adds it to a Coda table:

• Step 1: Email Label Trigger - When a specified label is added to an email in Gmail, the playbook triggers. Gmail is a robust email service with powerful search and organization features.
• Step 2: Generate Summary with OpenAI - OpenAI summarizes the content of the email, providing a concise overview that can be used to identify key tasks.
• Step 3: Extract Task List - OpenAI then processes the summary to extract a list of actionable tasks.
• Step 4: Merge Task Descriptions - This step prepares the extracted tasks, by merging them into a formatted text ready for insertion into Coda.
• Step 5: Add to Coda Table - The playbook adds the formatted task list to a Coda table. Coda is a flexible document tool that combines text, spreadsheets, and apps into one collaborative space.
