Let’s set it up!

Step 1: Integrate Google Sheets and Gmail

Click the “Try it” button at the top of this page to get this Autobook saved.

You will be redirected to download the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Google Sheets.

Bardeen will then prompt you to enter a Google Sheets spreadsheet to save the summarized emails. To get your emails saved, you will need to choose a timeframe. 

For example, if you enter “After yesterday” and “Before now”, Bardeen will find any emails between “now” and “yesterday”. It will then save the emails to your spreadsheet at execution time. 

Step 2: Try it and get a daily summary of your emails saved to a Google Sheet

After your setup is complete, make sure the automation is activated (toggled on).

It will summarize emails daily and add them to your Google Sheets spreadsheet along with information like subject line, summary, date, link and sender.

You can also edit the playbook and add your next action to further customize the automation.
