How do I extract an email address from the body of an email using Mailparser?

I’ve set up a mail parser account and a rule that I think does what I want it to. I’m setting up a zap triggered by a new gmail. If I try to use mailparser as the action, it says no operation is available. What I’m trying to accomplish is extracting an email address from the body of the email. 

 

Thank you.

Hi @JLO 

Good question.

You need to configure a Gmail rule to forward emails to Mailparser or if you can control where the emails are coming from have those sent to the generated Mailparser email inbox address.

Then your Zap trigger step will be: Mailparser - New Parsed Email

Mailparser cannot be used as an action step in a Zap.
