Set the Gmail trigger as “Label added”

A playbook always starts with a trigger, which is responsible for detecting changes in your connected applications and responding accordingly.

Add the Gmail trigger to initiate your playbook's actions whenever a label is added. Click "Add trigger" in your playbook and choose "Label added" from the dropdown menu under Gmail.

If you still need to connect your Gmail account to Relay.app yet, a prompt will guide you through the process.

Add the "Find Application(s)" and “Create interview schedule” step in Ashby

Integrate the Ashby automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt schedule of a new interview in Ashby every time a label is added.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Find Application(s)" and “Create interview schedule” automation for Ashby and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Ashby 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 Ashby account.

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically schedule an interview in Ashby every time a label is added in Gmail without requiring manual intervention.
