Reply to email thread

Sends a reply within a specific gmail thread using the original thread's subject, requiring a valid `thread id` and correctly formatted email addresses. supports attachments via the `attachment` parameter with valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, and `name`.

Why this helps

Customer feedback arrives in email but logging it in a sheet creates a duplicate thread. Follow-up replies require manual checking and copy-pasting.

  • Instant acknowledgment of customer feedback in email threads
  • Feedback captured in sheet and thread stays connected
  • No context lost between systems
  • Customers feel heard immediately

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and Gmail to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a new row is added to my feedback sheet, reply to the original Gmail thread with an acknowledgment.'
  • 3Set the trigger to 'New Rows in Google Sheet' and pick your feedback sheet.
  • 4Store the Gmail thread ID or email subject in a sheet column so Notis knows which thread to reply to.
  • 5Test by adding feedback, confirming a reply appears in the original Gmail thread.

Questions about this workflow

How do I link the sheet row to the Gmail thread?

Store the thread ID, email subject, or sender's email in a column. Notis uses that to find the right thread.

Can the auto-reply mention the customer's name?

Yes. Include a Name column in your sheet and tell Notis to personalize: 'start with Dear [Name], thank you for your feedback.'

What if feedback is sensitive?

Mark sensitive rows and tell Notis to skip them: 'don't auto-reply if the Type is private feedback.'
