Practical ways you can use Discord and Gmail
Get Discord notifications for important Gmail emails
Make sure important emails from Gmail get the attention they deserve. When a new email that matches a specific search string arrives in Gmail, Zapier triggers a message sent to a designated Discord channel. This ensures that significant updates or tasks related to those emails are responded to quickly in your team workspace.
Business Owner
Alert Discord users for IT-related Gmail emails
For IT teams managing internal or external requests, this workflow streamlines communication. When a new labeled email arrives in Gmail for IT-related requests or issues, Zapier automatically posts an alert in the relevant Discord channel. This reduces the chances of missing tickets, improving response time and ensuring no request slips through the cracks.
ITTrack Gmail updates in Discord
Project managers can bridge email updates with team communication. When a new email arrives in Gmail matching a specific search query (say, project updates or requirements), Zapier sends a message to the appropriate Discord channel. This keeps everyone aligned, reduces duplicated effort, and improves team efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions about Discord + Gmail integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Discord and Gmail
How can I receive Gmail notifications in Discord?
You can set up a workflow that triggers a message in Discord whenever you receive a new email in Gmail. By linking your Gmail account to Discord, we can watch for new emails and instantly post a message in your chosen Discord channel.
Is it possible to send emails from Gmail using Discord commands?
Yes, you can create an integration where a specific command in Discord triggers an email to be sent from your Gmail account. This involves configuring the command to pull necessary details like recipient address and message body, allowing for quick email sending directly from Discord.
Can I automate archiving or labeling of emails in Gmail from Discord?
Indeed, you can automate actions such as archiving or applying labels to emails based on specific commands issued within Discord. This setup would involve defining what action happens when certain keywords or phrases are detected in your server.
How do I set up a summary of daily emails from Gmail into a Discord channel?
To receive a daily summary of your Gmail inbox into a Discord channel, you need to configure an automation that compiles unread messages and posts them at the end of each day. This ensures you're updated with the day’s important communications right on your server.
What happens if I delete an email notification post in my Discord channel? Does it affect my actual email?
Deleting the email notification post within your Discord channel won’t affect the actual email in your Gmail account. The integration only mirrors the activity for notifications and doesn't alter or manage the original emails themselves.
Can I filter which Gmail emails trigger a notification in my Discord server?
Yes, when setting up the integration, we allow you to specify criteria such as sender, subject keywords, or specific labels that will trigger notifications. This way, only important or relevant emails will alert your team in Discord.
Is there any way to ensure that replies from my team on these notifications are tracked back into my Gmail conversations?
While direct replies on these notifications won't be tracked automatically back to the respective Gmail threads, structuring integrations can notify you of required follow-ups or use alternative methods such as bot commands to update relevant discussions.
