Save Gmail introduction recipients in Outlook Contacts
Turn a meaningful first outreach into an accessible relationship record. Notis recognizes genuine introductions sent from Gmail and saves the recipient in Outlook Contacts.
Trigger
Email Sent
Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.
Action
Create contact
Creates a new contact in a microsoft outlook user's contacts folder.
Why this helps
New relationships begin in Gmail but never reach the Outlook address book used for company communication and scheduling.
- Captures relationships at the moment outreach begins
- Keeps contacts available across Outlook work
- Excludes routine recipients through prompt criteria

- 2Tell Notis to save recipients of genuine first-introduction emails as Outlook contacts.
