Gmail Communication API: Watch Email Messages, Batch Delete Email Message

About this integration

Google's email service — send, read, organize, and search messages, threads, and drafts. Use it from the workflow canvas with no custom glue script required.

This integration exposes 1 trigger, 6 search modules and 14 actions as workflow nodes. Authentication uses oauth authentication.

How to connect

The credential form asks for Client ID and Client Secret.

OAuth asks you to approve https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify and https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.compose before access is granted.

Sign in and approve access — your password is never shared with WEXTL®, and you can revoke access from the provider at any time.

Use it in workflow automation

Start with Watch Email Messages, then add Batch Delete Email Message.

The canvas below runs Watch Email Messages into Batch Delete Email Message — watch the video, then drop a node onto the canvas.

Select the Watch Email Messages trigger and the workflow fires automatically when the event occurs — no polling required.

Then add Create a Draft Email as the next node. Branch, filter, or hand off to other integrations from there.

The integration includes 15 ready-made modules for communication work — each run logs its inputs and outputs for debugging.
