I refer to this template: https://n8n.io/workflows/2336-summarize-emails-and-save-them-as-notes-on-sales-opportunity-in-odoo/
Here is an example: When we execute this workflow every 1 hour, we could have receive 100 emails. How can we properly manage multi mails coming in to n8n workflow? What issues are we expected to face?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and suggestions!
Not sure what the exact issue is here.
If processing 100+ emails per hour feels like too much, you can adjust the poll time to 10 or 30 minutes.
If you’re worried about handling too many emails in one run, that shouldn’t be a problem
the key is how you process them and whether your workflow can handle that volume quickly.
If not, try using a loop to process emails one by one with a wait time in between.
A more cautious way to approach this:
Start by testing with a small batch.
If errors occur, make sure you have a backup plan for any emails that weren’t processed properly.
tbh u shoulnd’t face many issue, depending on how you choose, if the trigger pulls the item, or multiple items every hour, if 1 item the flow can be quite easy, if multiple, you may need to split them, so each email is processed through the flow, you don’t need a loop nesarrecely, as you can just have multiple items by splitting it, and it will process through the flow for each item.
It’s worth testing out first with smaller batches, but making sure the flow works for all potential cases, like how your extracting data has to be all the same to avoid errors. also making sure if ure using an ai agent that the output is consistent etc.
Hope this helps
