Welcome to Slap Beta! Follow these steps to get started in no time.

Step 1 - Create a new Email-to-Notion Sync

In your Slap account, go to Email-to-Notion Syncs and click on the button New Sync.

A. Name your sync

• Name - Name your Sync (e.g. CRM, Helpdesk, Tasks, Inbox, …); this is for your reference only.

B. Select your Notion Database

• Notion Database - Choose the Notion Database where you want to send your emails.
  • You can either work with one of your existing databases or use one of ours free Notion templates to get started quickly.
  • Make sure Slap has access to your Notion Database, else you won’t see it, more info on how to grant Slap access to your Notion database.
• Contact Email(s) - This is the field where the email address(es) of your contact(s) will be stored. Choose an email property from your Notion database to store it. If you’ve just added the property to your database, hit the refresh button to see it appearing.
• Thread ID - Select a text property from your database where we can store the thread ID, a technical field we use to determine which emails are part of the same conversation/thread. You can always hide this field in your Notion database to avoid cluttering your interface. If you’ve just added the property to your database, hit the refresh button to see it appearing.

C. Connect your mailbox

• Mailbox - Select the mailbox you want to sync with your Notion database. Click on the button Connect new Gmail mailbox to add a new one.

  Our app is still in beta version, which means it hasn't yet been verified by Google. Make sure you click on Advanced and then on Go to getslap.co (unsafe). If you have questions about security, contact us at [email protected].

<aside> <img src="/icons/warning_gray.svg" alt="/icons/warning_gray.svg" width="40px" /> All Notion users with access to the associated Notion database will be able to view emails sent and received in this Gmail mailbox. Ensure your access rights in Notion are set correctly.

D. Decide which emails should be sent to Notion

• Filter - You can choose whether all emails from your connected mailbox should appear in Notion or only specific ones based on their label (or alias). Learn more about using labels to filter emails sent to Notion here.

Step 2 - Test the sync

Verify that everything is working as expected by sending an email from your mailbox and checking if it arrives in your Notion database. You can send yourself an email to test it right away!

You can now reply using the input zone and the send button. Psst: slightly resize the embedding for easier use.
