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 workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Untrash Thread support batch operations?

Yes. Run Untrash Thread inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Gmail's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
