Add it to your workflow

Then you can simply select the recipe you wish to create! Using any of the recipes, you can customize the email that you send via the integration. You can type in values or autopopulate the email using fields from your item.
Next, you will be asked to connect your Gmail and monday.com accounts.
Connect your account
Once you click on one of the recipes, you will be asked to connect your monday.com account with your Gmail account:
Next, choose the email account you want to associate with monday.com.
Woohoo! It's that easy. 😀 You have successfully connected your account to Gmail. Now you can get busy building recipes to communicate efficiently with your team!
Does the integration support files?
The Gmail integration supports files! 🎉 If you receive an email with a file using one of the following recipes, that file will pull into the updates section:
It is also possible to send files from the Files column. If the file in the File Column is from a drive like Google Drive or OneDrive, the file will send as a URL to anyone. Their access to that file will depend on the settings in your drive.
If the file in the File Column was uploaded from someone’s computer, the file will also send as a URL to anyone. However, unless the person receiving the email is a member of your monday.com account and logged into the account, they won’t be able to download that file.
Does the integration support multiple email addresses?
The Gmail integration supports multiple emails! You can define multiple emails in a Text Column separated by ";" and the email will be sent to each of those emails separately. 💥
For example, in this recipe:
Choose the Email (column) option from the "someone" menu and then choose a Text column:
You can define the values (the email addresses) of the Text column like this: example@monday.com ; example.monday@gmail.com
And the integration will send an email to both example@monday.com & example.monday@gmail.com!
