How the Automation Works
Technical Overview of the Email-to-Task Conversion Process
Simple Yet Powerful Integration Process
- Monitor Email: The n8n workflow connects to your email account via IMAP
- Process New Messages: When new emails arrive, the system automatically extracts the subject and body
- Create Task Cards: Using HTTP requests, the workflow creates new cards in your specified Nextcloud Deck board and stack
- Mark as Processed: Emails are marked as read to prevent duplication
- Ready for Action: Tasks appear in your team's collaborative workspace without any manual intervention
Setup requires basic configuration of your Nextcloud URL, board ID, stack ID, and IMAP credentials - all manageable through the intuitive n8n interface.
