Can i import all mail under a label in gmail

Yes, you can import all emails under a specific label in Gmail using the Gmail API or third-party tools. Here are a few methods:

Method 1: Using the Gmail API

You can use the Gmail API to retrieve all emails under a specific label and then import them into another account or application. You'll need to:

Enable the Gmail API in the Google Cloud Console.
Create a project and enable the Gmail API.
Create credentials for your project (OAuth client ID).
Use the Gmail API to retrieve emails under the specified label using the users.messages.list method.
Use the users.messages.get method to retrieve the email content.
Import the emails into your desired application or account.

Here's an example of how to retrieve emails under a label using the Gmail API:

curl -X GET \
  https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/labels/INBOX/messages \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json'

Method 2: Using a third-party tool

There are several third-party tools that allow you to import emails under a specific label in Gmail. Some popular options include:

Sanebox: A email management tool that allows you to import emails under a specific label.
Boomerang: A email management tool that allows you to import emails under a specific label.
SaneBlackHole: A email management tool that allows you to import emails under a specific label.

These tools often provide a simple interface for selecting the label and importing the emails.

Method 3: Using a script

You can also use a script to import emails under a specific label in Gmail. For example, you can use a Python script using the imaplib library to connect to your Gmail account and retrieve emails under a specific label.

Here's an example of how to retrieve emails under a label using Python:

import imaplib
import email

# Connect to Gmail
mail = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com')
mail.login('[email protected]', 'your_password')
mail.select('inbox')

# Search for emails under the specified label
status, messages = mail.search(None, '(LABEL "INBOX")')

# Loop through the emails and retrieve the content
for num in messages[0].split():
    status, msg = mail.fetch(num, '(RFC822)')
    raw_message = msg[0][1].decode('utf-8')
    message = email.message_from_string(raw_message)
    # Do something with the email content

Note that this method requires you to have the imaplib library installed and to have the necessary permissions to access your Gmail account.
