Automate Gmail and GraspIO from your AI assistant
Ask Claude to create Gmail applets for you, right from your AI assistant, with IFTTT MCP.
Set up IFTTT MCP
Create your own Gmail and GraspIO workflow
Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.
33 triggers, queries, and actions
New attachment
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This trigger fires every time a new email with an attachment arrives in your inbox.
New conversation
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This trigger fires when a conversation starts in your Gmail inbox: a message gets its first reply and a back-and-forth begins. It fires once per conversation, not on every reply.
New email
Polling trigger

New email matching search
Polling trigger

New label
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.

New starred email
