STEP 1
Connect Email and MySQL
Save credentials in WEXTL once. We store them encrypted and reuse the authorization across every workflow [3]. No coding or API skills required.
Email and MySQL Integration
Combine the built-in Email node with MySQL on the WEXTL® visual workflow builder. Drop Email anywhere in your MySQL automation to run its logic between steps — the two live side by side on the same canvas, so you build the whole flow visually without a single line of code.

How does the integration between Email and MySQL work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Email and MySQL that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Email and MySQL.
Connect your Email and MySQL accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when Email's "Watch emails" fires, WEXTL can "Delete rows" in MySQL. Email has 1 trigger (including Watch emails); MySQL has 6 actions (including Delete rows, Execute a query, and Insert a row). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. Email-to-MySQL automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Email (or MySQL) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Email + MySQL automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
