Setup

  1. Download the JSON and import it into an isolated n8n instance. Leave the workflow inactive.
  2. Connect your own credentials through n8n’s credential store. Replace REPLACE_WITH_* values with your resource identifiers.
  3. Inspect API destinations, Code nodes, database queries, file paths, and outbound actions.
  4. Run with synthetic data and harmless destinations. Enable triggers only after checking the actual outputs.

Requirements

An n8n instance with the listed node types and compatible versions. Service-connected workflows may require accounts, credentials, or paid APIs.

How it works

This workflow automates the handling of incoming emails, summarizes their content, generates appropriate responses using a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) approach, and obtains approval or suggestions before sending replies.

You can quickly integrate Gmail and Outlook via the appropriate trigger nodes

Sticky Note2

Chain that summarizes the received email

Sticky Note5

Agent that retrieves business information from a vector database and processes the response

Sticky Note1

Convert email to Markdown format for better understanding of LLM models

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT

For the "Send Draft" node, you need to send the draft email to a Gmail address because it is the only one that allows the "Send and wait for response" function.

Sticky Note7

Based on the suggestion received, the text classifier can understand whether the feedback received approves the generated email or not.

Sticky Note8

The Email Reviewer agent, taking inspiration from human feedback, rewrites the email

Purpose and structure

This folder contains the Effortless Email Management with AI workflow. Its executable nodes use agent, chainSummarization, documentDefaultDataLoader, emailReadImap, emailSend, embeddingsOpenAi, gmail, googleDrive, httpRequest, lmChatDeepSeek, lmChatOpenAi, manualTrigger, markdown, set, textClassifier, textSplitterTokenSplitter, vectorStoreQdrant. The table and connection map below are derived from the JSON, not an inferred guarantee of behavior.

Setup

Import inactive. Configure your own credentials and replace REPLACE_WITH_* values. Review external destinations and Code nodes before running.
