How does this automation work?

Bardeen's Playbook automates the process of organizing important links by extracting them from labeled emails and saving them directly to Google Sheets. This is particularly useful for individuals involved in personal productivity and product development who receive resource links via email and wish to compile them efficiently without manual effort.

Here is how to automate saving links from emails to Google Sheets:

  • Step 1: Find labeled emails in Gmail - Bardeen searches through your Gmail for emails with a specific label, which you will need to specify. This step ensures that only the emails of interest are processed.
  • Step 2: Extract links from email bodies - After identifying the right emails, Bardeen extracts all links from the body of those emails. This step simplifies the collection of relevant URLs.
  • Step 3: Save links to Google Sheets - The extracted links are then added to a Google Sheet of your choice. This step requires you to specify the Google Sheet where the data will be stored. Google Sheets is an online spreadsheet app that lets you create and format spreadsheets and work with other people.

Let’s set it up!

Step 1: Pin the playbook and integrate Google Sheets and Gmail

First, click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to save this automation. You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Google Sheets.

 

Activate Bardeen (or hit OPTION + B on your keyboard) and click to run the playbook. Click on the playbook card, and the setup flow will start. Bardeen will ask for the email label and a Google Sheets spreadsheet to save the information. You can choose an existing sheet or create a new one.

The automation will find all your emails with a specific label, extract the links from the body text and save them to Google Sheets along with the email information like date, body text, subject line, sender address and more.

If there are multiple links in an email, it will create a new row in Google Sheets for each link.

Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Google Sheets. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 2: Run the playbook to save links from labeled emails to Google Sheets

Press Option + B on your keyboard to launch Bardeen. Click on the playbook card. Run the playbook for a specific label. It will extract all the links from the body text and save the information to your Google Sheets spreadsheet, along with the email information like subject line, date, sender and body text. 

You can also edit the playbook and add your next action to further customize the automation.
