How does this automation work?
Bardeen's playbook integrates Gmail with ClickUp and utilizes the capabilities of OpenAI to transform emails into actionable tasks. In today’s fast-paced business environment, staying on top of your tasks is crucial. With this workflow, you can instantly turn important emails into ClickUp tasks by simply adding a label, ensuring that you never miss a beat on your to-do list.
Here's how this workflow turns emails into ClickUp tasks automatically:
- Step 1: Trigger on Email Label - When a specific label is added to an email in Gmail, it triggers the workflow to process that email's content.
- Step 2: Summarize Email Content - OpenAI is used to generate a business-level summary of the email's body, providing a clear description for task creation.
- Step 3: Extract Task List - OpenAI processes the summarized content to extract a list of actionable tasks.
- Step 4: Prepare Task Description - The extracted task list is then merged into a formatted text that will be used as the task description in ClickUp.
- Step 5: Create ClickUp Task - A new task is created in your specified ClickUp list using the prepared description, automating the process of task management.
How to run the workflow
Automating your email sorting and task creation can save you time and streamline your workflow. By setting up an automation to generate a task list from an email when a label is added, and then creating a task in ClickUp, you can easily track and manage your tasks without having to input the information manually.
This automation converts emails into a task list when a label is added to the emails, and creates a task in ClickUp with the email content. This ensures that all relevant information is captured and organized correctly.
By freeing up time and reducing the risk of errors, this automation can help you stay on top of your tasks and improve your productivity.
