Hello everybody :slightly_smiling_face:
I would like to create an gmail automation with a reminder mail in response to a previously send email.

My example :

Trigger = a checkbox “send invoice” is valid
Action 1 = send email with invoice
Action 2 = send reminder email in response to the first mail (if i check some checkbox like “reminder mail”)

Could this be possible in airtable?

Thanks !

Hi @Panpi_Daguerre ,
I had a similar requirement and I was able to solve it by using Nodezap .
You can easily connect your airtable base with Nodezap and define your custom logic like data manipulation, send notifications etc.

Thanks and cheers.

If you’re asking about making the second reminder email a literal reply to the first one (i.e. in the same thread), that’s not possible using Airtable. The best that you can do is add a "Re: " prefix to the subject line, but that just changes the subject, and there’s no guarantee that the recipient’s email client will treat it as a reply to the first message. I’m no email protocol wizard, but my understanding is that there’s other data in the email header that indicates when a given email is actually a reply to a previous email, and that header info isn’t accessible via Airtable.

Okay thanks for your reply anyway : )

My pleasure! If that provided a satisfactory answer to your question, please mark my comment (the one above, not this one) as the solution. This helps others who may be searching with similar questions. Thanks!
