How do I restore a Gmail thread from trash?

Short answer: You can untrash thread in Gmail by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Gmail Untrash Thread action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Untrash Thread.

What does the Untrash Thread action do in Gmail?

Removes an email thread from the trash, restoring it. Used in undo or recovery flows.

What inputs does Untrash Thread require?

Required: Thread ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Gmail returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Gmail returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Untrash Thread support batch operations?

Run Untrash Thread inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Gmail's rate limits.
