How to create an automatic draft email in Gmail for any deal stage changes in Pipedrive
Set the Pipedrive trigger as “Deal stage changed”
Every playbook starts with a trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and runs your playbook in response.
Click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Deal stage changed" trigger from the Pipedrive options from there. It will enable your playbook to identify deals' stages that have been changed and trigger necessary actions automatically.
If you still need to connect your Pipedrive account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
Add the "Create draft" in Gmail automation
Integrate the Gmail automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt creation of email drafts about the changes in the Pipedrive deals stage.
Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Create draft" automation for Gmail and input the mandatory and relevant details.
If your Gmail account isn't already 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 Relay.app playbook
Activating your playbook is the final step to automate the creation of new email drafts via Gmail. Once turned on, it will respond to deal stage changes in Pipedrive by creating an email draft via Gmail without manual intervention.
To enable your playbook, click the toggle button located in the header. It is advisable to perform a test run of your playbook beforehand to ensure all steps work seamlessly together and reminders are being sent correctly.
