Keep in mind that default Gmail allows webhooks for any changes (email received but also changing labels, etc), for free using Gmail pubsub. I use it a lot because it's the only way of getting programmatic notifications from credit card purchases (turn on purchase alerts to all cards, send to Gmail, have a filter archive but capture the reception in webhooks. Parse with simple regex)
Super fast low latency very satisfying. Pubsub scales well and free :)
Good to know. I use a simple forwarder to a personal slack email which gives me the notifications via slack.
Totally hear you. We think Gmail works great for individuals. We are solving the challenges of scaling email to thousands of agents per tenant.
That workflow sounds amazing. How do you set that up? Got any code for it that we can look at?
