Automatically extract action items from emails

This tutorial teaches you how to create a workflow that scans your emails, extracts to-dos, and adds them to a Notion database as tasks.

Manual tracking of email-based tasks is time-consuming and error-prone, but with this automated workflow, you can save time and enhance your task management.

Steps we’ll follow:

1. Set up a Notion database to store action items
2. Create a Gumloop workflow to extract action items from emails
3. Analyze email content and identify tasks
4. Automatically populate your Notion database with extracted action items

You'll need:

• A Notion account
• A Gumloop account (starter plan required for automated triggers)
• A Gmail account

Let's get into it.
