Controlling Gmail with an n8n AI agent
A no-code build: wiring Gmail into n8n with OAuth2 and letting an AI agent triage and act on email automatically.
A practical automation build. I connect Gmail to n8n and hand control of the inbox to an AI agent that can read, classify and act on messages — all without writing a traditional backend.
What the video covers
- Building an n8n workflow from scratch.
- Connecting Gmail securely with OAuth2 (and why that matters versus pasting credentials).
- Defining a trigger that fires on incoming mail.
- Passing the message to an AI agent, getting a decision back, and executing an action automatically.
Why it's useful
This is the kind of glue work that saves real hours: automatic triage, auto-replies, and routing — assembled from no-code building blocks. It's aimed at developers and hackers who want leverage without standing up infrastructure.
