Add new incoming emails to a Google Sheets spreadsheet as a new row

This n8n workflow automates the process of capturing and storing incoming email details in a structured spreadsheet format, such as Google Sheets or Excel. Whenever a new email is received, the workflow extracts key details—including the sender’s email, subject, email body, and optional attachments—and logs them as a new row in the spreadsheet. You can customise this workflow to extract additional details, filter emails based on specific criteria, or send notifications when new entries are added. Pre-conditions & Requirements Before setting up this workflow, ensure that: You have access to the email provider (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, or IMAP-supported email services). The Gmail Node must be enabled in n8n. You must authenticate n8n with Google OAuth2 to access your inbox. Ensure that the Gmail API is enabled in the Google Cloud Console. You have an existing Google Sheet where data will be stored. The Google Sheets API is enabled. You authenticate n8n with your Google account. Steps Step 1: Add the Gmail Trigger Node Click on "Add Node" and search for "Gmail". Select "Gmail Trigger" and click to add it.
