Turn emailed feature requests into Notion tasks
Reads new Gmail email for feature requests and logs the ones it finds in Notion as tasks, with a summary of who asked and why.
What it does
Each integration step this workflow runs, in order, what it is for, and the conditions and loops that decide when it runs.
- 1GmailNew email triggerStarts a run for each new email in your inbox, or only for mail from the sender or domain in its From filter, such as the address your feedback form sends from.
- 2ClaudeGenerate model responseAsks the AI twice: first to list the email's feature requests as actionable items, or say there are none; then, when there are, to summarise who is asking and why.
- 3NotionCreate pageCreates one page in your feature-request database, titled with the feature, holding the requests as to-dos, the summary, the sender, a Gmail link and the email's text.
How it works
What happens on each run, in plain English.
When a new email arrives in your Gmail inbox, the AI checks whether it asks for something your product does not do yet. If it does, each request is written up as an actionable item, a short summary says who is asking, what problem it would solve and how much it matters, and both land on a new page in your Notion feature-request database. Emails that hold no request - bug reports, billing questions, newsletters, notifications, replies that only chase an earlier request - are skipped, with the reason in the run log.
Each page is titled with the feature rather than the email, so the database reads as a list of requests. It holds the requests as to-dos, the summary, who sent the email and when, a link back to it in Gmail, and the email's own text, so teammates who cannot see your inbox can read the request in the sender's words. Only the title column is written, so it works with any database.
You need Gmail, Anthropic and Notion connections, and the link to a Notion database shared with your Notion connection. Every new email in your inbox starts its own run and is read by the AI, so set the trigger's From filter to the sender or domain your requests come from, such as your feedback form's address: the rest of your inbox then stays away from the AI, and you pay for far fewer runs.
