How to organize your Gmail inbox with automation using Zapier

Hi! I need help making my Gmail Inbox more organized and efficient. Here's what I've set up so far:

I created sub-inboxes (labels) under "Categories":

  • Action Required – emails I need to immediately act on
  • To Reply To – emails I need to respond to

Is there a way to automatically move emails back to the main inbox (or archive them) once I've taken action on or replied to them?

Everything feels very manual right now. If this is possible, could someone help me set up the Zaps for it? I'm a complete beginner in Zapier, so any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi ​@Monique_S 

Try using native Gmail automation via Google Workspace Studio: https://workspace.google.com/studio/

 

Review the available Gmail Zap app integration triggers/actions and help links:
