Discover how to use your email client to interact with Notis.
Notis integrates with your email, allowing you to interact with your Notion workspace directly through your inbox. With email integration, you can capture information, query your Notion databases, and manage your content all without switching applications.
Getting Started
To use Notis email integration, simply send an email to hey@notis.ai from your registered email address. Notis will process your email and respond accordingly.
Currently, you can only use the email address that you registered with during Notis onboarding. If you need to update your registered email, please contact Notis support.
How Email Context Works
Email integration handles context differently than WhatsApp and Telegram conversations:
- Context is managed at an email thread level - every email in the same thread shares the same context window
- This means all messages within a single thread build upon each other, creating a continuous conversation
- Starting a new email thread creates a fresh context
When you ask Notis to send you a draft email, that email you receive is attached to the context of the original conversation that happened before requesting the draft. This feature allows you to branch out a conversation and continue it asynchronously through emails.
Key Features
Attachments Support
Notis can process various types of attachments sent via email:
- Documents and files are mounted for file search when compatible (See Compatible Files for more information)
- Images are fully supported and processed by Notis vision models
Email Drafting
You can ask Notis to draft emails for you directly from any channel (WhatsApp, Telegram, or email):
- Request an email draft from Notis
- Receive the draft in your inbox
- Reply to the draft to continue working on it with Notis
- Send the final version directly from your email client
Database Interaction
Use email to interact with your Notion databases:
- Forward emails to Notis to automatically extract and store information
- Ask questions about your database contents
- Request summaries or reports from your data
Use Cases
- Email to Database Entry
Forward application emails, receipts, or important messages to Notis to automatically create database entries with all relevant information extracted.
- Email Drafting Assistant
Ask Notis to help draft important emails, providing context and requirements. Review, edit, and send the final version from your email client.
- Document Processing
Send documents as email attachments to have Notis analyze them, extract key information, and store it in your Notion workspace.
Limitations
We currently don't support multiple email addresses for a single Notis account. This feature is planned for future implementation. Vote for this feature to help us prioritize development.
