FAQ

Questions about Directus + Gmail.

How long does it take to connect Directus and Gmail on TinyCommand?

Under two minutes. Authorize Directus and Gmail once each, drop the Directus trigger and Gmail action onto a workflow canvas, map a couple of fields, and publish. No code, no glue.

Is the Directus ↔ Gmail integration real-time?

Yes. Both Directus and Gmail expose webhooks, so events from one fire workflows in the other within seconds rather than on a polling interval.

Can I filter or transform data between Directus and Gmail?

Yes. Add a Filter node to only pass through matching events, a Switch node to branch by value, or an AI / Code node to transform payloads before they hit Gmail.

What Directus events can trigger a Gmail workflow?

Use TinyCommand's universal Webhook trigger to receive Directus events, then run any of the 27 Gmail actions downstream.

Do I need a paid plan to use Directus with Gmail?

No. There's a free tier that covers most Directus+Gmail use cases without a credit card. Paid plans unlock higher run volumes and team features when you outgrow it.

What if I want Gmail → Directus instead?

Build it the same way, in reverse. There's a dedicated /integrations/google-gmail/with/directus page with the reverse-direction triggers and actions.
