FAQ

Questions about Gmail + Google Sheets.

Can I AI-extract structured data from emails before writing?
Yes. Insert Claude/OpenAI step. Pass the email body; get back JSON with extracted fields (e.g., {customer: …, amount: …, due: …}). Write each property to a Sheet column.
How do I track Gmail sends per recipient?
Gmail Sent Email → Sheets Append Row with to, subject, sent_at. Pivot weekly per recipient for outreach-volume metrics. Useful for sales SDR tracking.
Can I track Gmail thread length and response time?

How do I avoid Sheet bloat from a busy inbox?

Can I create Gmail drafts from Sheet rows in reverse?
Yes. Sheets New Row → Gmail Create Draft with to/subject/body from the row. Useful when marketing or ops teams maintain outreach lists in a Sheet but execute via Gmail.
