How to automatically add label to Gmail emails every time an event is scheduled in Google Calendar
Set the Google Calendar trigger as “Event scheduled”
A playbook always starts with a trigger, which is responsible for detecting changes in your connected applications and responding accordingly.
Add the Google Calendar trigger to initiate your playbook's actions every time an event is scheduled. Click "Add trigger" in your playbook and choose "Event scheduled" from the dropdown menu under Google Calendar.
If you still need to connect your Google Calendar account to Relay.app yet, a prompt will guide you through the process.
Add the “Add label to email” step in Gmail
Integrate the Gmail automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt addition of labels to Gmail emails every time an event is scheduled in Google Calendar.
Click the "Add step" button, locate the “Add label to email” automation for Gmail, and input the mandatory and relevant details.
If your Gmail account still needs to be connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Gmail account.
Activate your playbook
Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically add a label to Gmail emails whenever an event is scheduled in Google Calendar without manual intervention.
To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
