Gmail Trigger - Pooling & Execution Count

[Aparna_Gaikwad]

I have created workflow to read emails using gmail trigger. I want to set it’s pooling frequency to 1 minute. Will it count each minute as execution even if my workflow executed only 10 times.

the answer to your question is yes @Aparna_Gaikwad When using a Gmail trigger with a 1 minute polling frequency, each poll will count as one execution, regardless of whether a new email is found or the rest of your workflow runs.

Does this answer your question, if yes kindly mark as the solution.

I activated my workflow to test this but it counted execution only when it received email.

How to count workflow executions in n8n?

I refer to this template: Summarize emails and save them as notes on sales opportunity in Odoo | n8n workflow template a) If I run this node to fetch emails every 1 hour from Gmail services into my workflows in n8n, after 1 day, I would have 24 workflow executions - is this correct? b) If I run this node to fetch emails every 30 mins from Gmail services into my workflows in n8n, after 1 day, I would have 48 workflow executions - is this correct? Thank you

From what I have observed, one with gmail received will be count execution.
