Sending emails direct to trigger

[MJHannington]

I want to start a trigger by sending an email to it how would that be done? Does the trigger have an email of its own ? Or am I thinking wrong, I want to forward emails I received to extract customer details and respond and attached some sales docs, Just to clarify, I don’t need the workflow to have access to all emails in my inbox just the leads
Guess I could set up a google account but it would be simpler just to send to the work flow

Describe the problem/error/question

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

(Select the nodes on your canvas and use the keyboard shortcuts CMD+C/CTRL+C and CMD+V/CTRL+V to copy and paste the workflow.)

Share the output returned by the last node

Hello @MJHannington,

You can create a label in your Gmail and set up a label assignment rule in your inbox.

After that, set the trigger of the “Gmail Trigger” node with the “Label Names or IDs” filter using the label you created.

Or you can define a specific sender.

If this works, mark this answer as the solution.

I’m grateful to be able to help.
