Hi Iwan Welcome to the community

I’m not too sure what exactly you’re asking here, exactly - are you looking for how to filter by label in the IMAP trigger node?

If so, you can add the filter under the “options” section, like this:

If this doesn’t help, could you share an example workflow and go into a little bit more detail about what you’re trying to do? Also, could you fill out this template:

• n8n version:
• Database (default: SQLite):
• n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):

Hi @Iwan_Yudhistira I tested this out like this:

And have had no issues with testing and getting emails marked as read Can you let us know what version of n8n you’re using? If you’re on an older version, you may be missing some bug fixes.

If you’re on a more recent version of n8n, this can unfortunately also be a potential issue with your IMAP server, which may have different identifiers for messages than you expect.

Hi @EmeraldHerald

ehm, for those rules run well, can you add body email for those rules cause i made one before not run [“UNSEEN”, [“SUBJECT”, “Attention - Tbssvr-wmdash0234”],[“Body”,“Partition of Drive”]] and then i run in n8n Version 0.227.1.

once again after i add imap rules [“UNSEEN”, [“SUBJECT”, “Attention - Tbssvr-wmdash0234”], another imap trigger has error, my imap run so well, there is bug, so i upgrade the latest version?

regards
Iwan

Hi @Iwan_Yudhistira

I managed to get this to work with ["UNSEEN", ["SUBJECT", "foo"], ["TEXT", "bar"]] - can you try TEXT instead of BODY and see if that picks this up instead?

[Iwan_Yudhistira]

Hey @Iwan_Yudhistira,

That is interesting it looks like TEXT or BODY should work, Can you share the exact rule you are using?

[Iwan_Yudhistira]

Hi @Jon and @EmeraldHerald

thank for discussion, i think i found this resolution i’ll try rules [“UNSEEN”, [ “OR”, [“SUBJECT”, “Attention”],[“TEXT”,“Partition”]]]

and then change config with

the rules work well, maybe will be monitored.
