Latenode

Automatically create ClickUp tasks from new Gmail emails

This template watches Gmail for new mail that matches the search you set, such as a label, sender, or keyword.

ClickUp then creates a task in the list you choose, using the subject as the task name and the sender plus snippet in the description. Connect Gmail and ClickUp, then point the trigger at the inbox search and pick the ClickUp list.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runtime in CPU seconds. The first 10,000 CPU seconds are free each month, then usage follows pay-as-you-go CPU-second pricing. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.
