Then, pick Mattermost as the action app where you can define actions like sending a channel message with the email content.
What triggers are available for integrating Gmail with Mattermost?
For Gmail, you have various triggers available such as when you receive a new email, when an email is labeled (important for sorting sensitive emails), or when a specific type of attachment is received. You can then set these to trigger automatic messages or updates in Mattermost.
What actions can be performed in Mattermost through this integration?
With our integration, you can perform actions like sending messages to a channel or direct messages in Mattermost when a certain email event occurs. Additionally, you might trigger daily summaries of your emails directly into a specified channel.
Is it possible to filter which emails trigger actions in Mattermost?

Can I use this integration for team notifications based on specific email criteria?
Absolutely! Configure the integration to notify your team in Mattermost channels when specific criteria within incoming emails are met. For example, if an email from a VIP customer arrives marked 'High Priority', it could automatically post a notification.
How can I customize email content before it sends to Mattermost?
You have flexibility in customizing the email content before it's sent to Mattermost. Use formatting options and include dynamic data like snippets of the body text while setting up your action rules within our platform.
