Is there a way to automate creating a new gmail label under an existing parent label? There are mentions of people using syntax but I cannot get this to work nor can find proper instructions on setting up the syntax properly.
Hi
Take note of the description underneath the field:
Hi Troy and thank you for this.
Not sure how to do this properly set this up, sorry to sound like a rookie.
Here is the zap:
And here is label in gmail. You can see the label below the highlighted one. That’s the parent label I am trying to save the new label under.
Am I entering this properly?
You don’t need the enclosing double quotes “”
Try adding the Parent Label first, then adding the Child Label next using the defined structure with the forward slash /
Example
Hi Troy,
So I have entered Parent/Child and it just created 1 label named Parent/Child. Do you mind writing in exactly what you would put and I will copy and paste?
I have an existing parent label named:
1 - Send Video & Book 3 Way Call
New child label name is:
first name last name
Cheers
Try creating 2 Labels
Label: Parent
Label: Parent/Child
The reason is that it’s shown in Gmail as Parent/Child, is because there is no matching Label yet.
K got it working now. Thanks so much Troy for taking time out of your day to help out!
All the best.
