Method 3: Using a third-party add-on
There are several third-party add-ons available that can help you automate email organization in Gmail. Some popular options include:
- Sanebox: A paid add-on that uses machine learning to automatically sort and prioritize your emails.
- Boomerang: A paid add-on that allows you to schedule emails to be sent later, remind you about important emails, and more.
- SaneBlackHole: A free add-on that allows you to automatically move emails to a specific folder based on certain criteria.
To use a third-party add-on, you'll need to install it from the Google Workspace Marketplace and follow the add-on's instructions for setting up automatic email organization.
Method 4: Using a script
If you're comfortable with coding, you can use a script to automate email organization in Gmail. You can use Google Apps Script or a third-party scripting service like Zapier.
Here's an example of a Google Apps Script that moves emails to a specific folder based on a specific label:
function moveEmailsToFolder() {
var label = "example-label";
var folder = "example-folder";
var threads = GmailApp.searchThreads("label:" + label);
for (var i = 0; i < threads.length; i++) {
var thread = threads[i];
var messages = thread.getMessages();
for (var j = 0; j < messages.length; j++) {
var message = messages[j];
GmailApp.moveThread(message.getThreadId(), folder);
}
}
}
You can set up this script to run automatically at a specific interval using the Google Apps Script editor.
I hope these methods help you automate email organization in Gmail!
