Monitor Gmail for New Emails and Generate Hourly Run Summaries
This workflow helps you monitor your Gmail inbox by automatically surfacing new messages in a scannable summary. You can customize the search parameters, such as the time window or specific labels, and the maximum number of results retrieved. It uses Gmail to search your inbox and extracts the sender, subject, and timestamp for each message. In this example, the workflow runs every hour to find emails received within the last 60 minutes. It formats these into a concise bulleted list in your run log, allowing you to stay updated without leaving your workspace.
