5 ways to automate Mailparser with Zapier

By Nicole Replogle · June 26, 2024

If you send and receive a lot of emails, you know finding important information in your inbox makes finding a needle in a haystack look easy. Thankfully, there are tools available to help extract data from emails so you can sort and organize that information in a way that makes sense to you.

Mailparser automatically pulls information—like contact details or billing data—from emails. Just forward any email to the tool, and the advanced email parser will extract any relevant data fields from the email text and attachments based on your custom specifications. 

But extracting that data is half the battle; you still need to do something with it. And having to download reports or copy information to your other apps can be as much of a bottleneck as leaving everything in your inbox in the first place. Thankfully, you can use Zaps—our word for automated workflows—to connect Mailparser to the tools you use every day. That way, you can simply forward emails to Mailparser and trust all that important information ends up exactly where you want it. 

New to Zapier? It's workflow automation software that lets you focus on what matters. Combine user interfaces, data tables, and logic with thousands of apps to build and automate anything you can imagine. Sign up for free.

Save emails to a spreadsheet or database

There are many reasons you might want to save email content to a spreadsheet. If you're fielding a lot of incoming emails—from job applications to tracking numbers to customer requests—it can be easier to organize and manage them in spreadsheet format. 

Mailparser takes care of extracting important information from those emails. But while you can use Mailparser's native integration with Google Sheets, Excel, or Airtable, you may prefer the flexibility of Zapier's Mailparser integration instead. These Zaps create or update rows in your database tools for every new parsed email in Mailparser. 

Pro tip: Add a formatter step to customize how information is displayed in your spreadsheet or database. Do things like split first and last names, format dates, and even find an emailer's customer ID in your business records.

                                    The back-and-forth involved in setting up a meeting over email can be exhausting. "Does Tuesday at 2 p.m. work for you?" and "I'm free on Friday at 11" feel like they run on repeat. And even once you've settled on a time, you still have to create a new meeting in your calendar and add invitees.

                                        Use webhooks to connect Mailparser to your other tools

                                        If you're inspired to create a Mailparser automation but your favorite tool doesn't (yet!) have a Zapier integration, you can use a webhook instead. Webhooks are automated messages sent between apps when a triggering event happens. In this case, the trigger event would be a new parsed email in Mailparser. 

                                        For example, say you use an obscure CRM or bespoke database tool. You can use a webhook to send email information from Mailparser to that app automatically. Use the template below to get started customizing your webhook action.

It's an easy way to customize the data mailparser.io sends to your apps.
