Give every new support request a clear next step.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

Gather recent messages from a Gmail support inbox, separate requests that still need attention, and prepare an issue summary with suggested labels and priority. Keep the source email available for context and let a support teammate review the proposed issue before it becomes shared team work.

Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.

What this workflow could do

Helps support teams organize incoming Gmail requests into consistent work items while preserving the customer’s original message.

Review points proposed in this idea

Messages may be unrelated to support, repeat an existing request, or include sensitive information. Confirm the inbox scope and avoid duplicate processing, verify every proposed title, description, label, and priority against the original, and require a support owner to approve the issue before adding it to the team’s shared work. Approve any customer-facing response before sending it.
