Recipes
When Gmail reports "Message received", create an item on the monday.com board you choose.
When an item's status changes in monday.com, run "Create draft" in Gmail.
Keep Gmail as it is. We connect it to monday.com.
We build the integration around what you already have. Gmail keeps doing the job it does for you today, and monday.com gets the data it needs to plan and track the work around it.
Before we build, we agree which system owns each record. The integration then carries data between Gmail and monday.com, so nobody copies it by hand.
Nothing your team relies on has to be replaced.
We highly recommend Worktables. They took the time to listen to all of our challenges and created an integrated system to manage all aspects of our operations.
What stays the same
Gmail stays as it is
The integration connects to Gmail the way you use it today. It moves the data, and nothing you rely on has to change.
Each record lives once
We agree which system owns each record before we build, so there is one right copy, not two.
Data arrives on its own
When data needs to reach the other side, the integration carries it. No exports, no re-keying.

Questions about connecting Gmail
Do we have to replace anything?
No. Gmail stays as it is, and so does monday.com. The integration carries data between them; it does not replace either one.
What if monday.com already offers an integration with Gmail?
Then we start from what it covers. Where it does the job, we build on it; where your process needs more, we build around it.
Can we test it before it goes live?
Yes. We test on a copy of your board before the integration touches the live one.
Who looks after it once it is running?
We do. We watch it after launch, fix what breaks, and change it when your process changes. Every run is logged, so there is a record of what moved and when.
