Description

Execute email actions directly from Notion. Set an email’s status to Responded, Delegated, Routed, or Archived, and this workflow handles the Gmail action, Slack notification, or Jira routing automatically.

Context

This is the action layer for the Inbox Zero Engine. When you set an email’s status in Notion, the workflow executes the appropriate action:
• Responded: sends the draft reply via Gmail thread • Delegated: forwards the email + sends a Slack DM to the delegate • Routed: creates items in Jira, RICE+ backlog, or customer health • Archived: applies Gmail labels
After each action, the entry is marked as “Processed” in Notion.

Who is this for?

• PMs using Notion as their command center
• Anyone who wants to process email without leaving Notion
• Teams that delegate and route emails frequently

Requirements

• Notion account with Email Intelligence database
• Gmail OAuth2
• Slack Bot token

How it works

  • Trigger Watches Email Intelligence in Notion for status changes.
  • Action Router 4-way switch: Responded sends reply, Delegated forwards + DMs, Routed creates tickets, Archived labels in Gmail.
  • Closed Loop Updates each entry to “Processed” with timestamp and reference.

What you get

• One-click email actions from Notion
• Automatic Gmail replies, forwards, and archiving
• Slack notifications for delegated emails
• Full audit trail in Notion
