Who is it for? Anyone who wants to automatically aggregate their invoices or receipts. Main beneficiaries: small business owners and freelancers. How it works Creates a folder in Google Drive for uploading invoices and receipts. Responds (Webhook response) with URL to the created folder. Gets all emails with attachments from a Gmail mailbox. (Optional) Filters emails, e.g. exclude emails sent to specific address. Filters only PDF attachments. Classifies all PDF attachment contents with an AI model (is it a receipt or an invoice?). Uploads receipts and invoices to the created Google Drive folder and optionally sends an email with the attachments to, e.g., your accountant. Pre-conditions/Requirements Gmail and Google Drive accounts A Google Cloud OAuth 2.0 Client ID or a service account with Google Drive and Gmail APIs enabled OpenAI API account and API key Set up steps Provide credentials for the nodes: Gmail, Google Drive, OpenAI.

Must be in ISO 8601 format." }, "endDate": { "type": "string", "format": "date-time", "description": "The end date of the range to search for emails. Must be in ISO 8601 format." }, "sendEmail": { "type": "boolean", "description": "Indicates whether to send an email with all receipts and invoices after processing. Must be true or false." } }, "required": "startDate", "endDate" ] } } Example body: { "startDate": "2025-03-01T00:00:00Z", "endDate": "2025-04-01T00:00:00Z", "sendEmail": true } How to use with AI chat You can trigger the workflow with an AI chat that supports tool use, such as [BrowseWiz.
