Hi there, I’m brand new to Zapier and automation. I have many emails that were sent to my gmail account from a Squarespace form for lead generation. I’d like to export the content of these emails to a Google Sheet - however everything I’ve seen so far shows that Zapier would do this with NEW emails, not OLD. Is it possible to create an automation for old emails?
Thanks for your time - and all the best!

Each Gmail trigger has a specific length of time in the past that it can "see" emails in your Gmail account. If the email in question is older than the time limit, the trigger won't be able to detect that email.
These limits are as follows:
Please note that if you would like to trigger a Zap for starred emails that entered your inbox more than two days ago, you can use the New Labeled Email trigger and specify the STARRED label from the dropdown when setting up your Zap.
