How to create a dynamic subject name in gmail (or outlook)?

I have reports generating monthly which is an automated process. I managed to automate the process so when the reports are generated, the reports will be send to my Gmail (or outlook), and then send to different clients’ email address base on the attachment name using Zapier.

I wonder if it is possible to set up dynamic subject for the email when setting up action in Zapier. For example, “Report for July”, and the month will change base on the current month.

Hi @Farooq 

Good question.

Yes, it’s possible to have dynamic email subjects in a Zap.

Use a Formatter > Date / Time > Format step in the Zap.
