Summarize new emails and list to-dos automatically with Duaer

In Duaer, each new email goes to the email summary employee, which returns a short summary, to-dos, and tone, then posts them to WeCom, Slack, or email.

Build the email summary flow in Duaer

  1. Hire the Duaer email summary employee and copy its ID under Hired.
  2. Add a trigger: Gmail Trigger for Gmail (turn off Simplify to get the body), or Email Trigger (IMAP) for any IMAP mailbox.
  3. Add Duaer Employee, paste the ID, and set Input to From: {{ $json.from.text }}, a new line, Subject: {{ $json.subject }}, a new line, {{ $json.text }}. Match the field names to your trigger output.
  4. Add a notifier: a WeCom group bot, Slack, or Send Email, with {{ $json.summary }} and {{ $json.todos }} in the message.
  5. Publish the digital organization. Every new email is summarized from then on.

What the Duaer email summary employee returns

  • summary: one or two sentences faithful to the email.
  • todos: to-dos separated by semicolons, or none.
  • tone: urgent, neutral, friendly, or angry.

To post only urgent mail, add If before the notifier with {{ $json.tone }} equal to urgent. Each email costs 5 credits.
