Hi all,


Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how best to set up the following workflow.


We are wanting to bring in info (sender, date, subject and main body message) from emails received (across a number of different email accounts).


Once the above info has found its way into Airtable we are then wanting to send information from these new records to 3rd party email address or phone numbers.


Not really sure where/how best to start tackling this so any advice/guidance would be appreciated.


Cheers

Yes, your best bet for doing all of this is to use Make’s advanced automations & integrations, which you can integrate with any email app or SMS app.

For emailing, I would highly recommend using either MailerSend or MailGun as your mailing service of choice. I do NOT recommend SendGrid, as it is very difficult to use.

For SMS, I like SimpleTexting the best, but there are many other ones to choose from as well, such as MessageBird or TextMagic.

If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread. For example, here is one of the ways that you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable

I also give live demonstrations of how to use Make in many of my Airtable podcast appearances. For example, in this video, I show how to work with Airtable arrays in Make.

Hope this helps!

p.s. If you have a budget and you’d like to hire the best Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld
