Webhooks Gmail Add-on
With this Gmail add-on, you will be able to trigger your automation workflows (e.g. in n8n or Make) with webhooks. By triggering, add-on transfer the data of opened email message (sender, subject, content etc.) to desired workflow for further processing.
If you want to see this add-on in action, please have a look on my YouTube video about automating Gmail with n8n AI nodes.
🚀 Key features of the add-on
- No external database needed (webhooks are stored in memory of your Google account)
- Add, edit and delete webhooks directly from add-on UI
- Preview email data (info such as thread ID, subject, sender and message date can be previewed before triggering webhook)
- Import/export library of webhooks (webhooks can be exported to JSON file on Google Drive and shared, e.g. with co-workers)
- Adjust to your branding (add-on colors and icons can be adjusted to your corporate identity just with a few lines of code)
- Full source available, privacy first (you get whole source code of the add-on for installation - you control your data)
In order to proceed with installation and take full advantage of the plugin, it’s highly recommended to have a basic knowledge about webhooks, Google Apps Script, OAuth and low-code automation tools.

Trigger automation workflows via webhooks and fetch responses in HTML format. This feature can be used to prepare very custom drafts of messages using AI workflows in your automation tool.
For example use case, please see my YouTube video.
⚠️ Please be aware that feature works properly only with ISO basic Latin alphabet. Other characters (in subject, recepient name) may be replaced with various strings. This behaviour is connected with Google environment and not add-on itself.

💬 FAQ
Why this add-on is not available in Google Workspace marketplace?
Configuration of this add-on requires whitelisting of addresses (URLs) of your automation software. This can be done only by modifying the code, which is not possible when add-on is installed from the marketplace.
I also believe that you should have full control over your data. That’s why I sell full source code of the plugin - when you buy it, it’s yours. No tricks.
What is the difference between Individual and Enterprise license?
Licenses differ in their scope of application. If you want to use the plugin on your individual Gmail account (also for internal use in your company), choose the Individual version.
If you want to install the plugin in your Google Workspace organization and share it with your co-workers within the company, choose the Enterprise version.
Enterprise package includes also extended guide for plugin installation in Google Workspace organization.
Can you install the add-on for me?
Unfortunately no. But I provide detailed installation guides and if you have any questions regarding installation process, you can always drop me an email: oskar@workfloows.com.
Is customer support included?
I’ll be glad to help with basic issues. I’m not able, however, to perform troubleshooting, particularly after modifications of the code have been made.
Can I install the add-on on Gmail accounts for my clients?
Yes, you can. However, each client requires a separate license (Individual or Enterprise, depending on the use case). Additionally, it's prohibited to white-label and resell the product as your own.
I have a feature idea - how can I share it?
Please share it to oskar@workfloows.com.
🔏 License
I got inspired by license of Campfire product by 37signals - you buy the product once and use forever. Additionaly, when it comes to such private data as email correspondence, transparency is the key. That's why I'm providing full source code, so you can control how your data is processed.
