Hey everyone! 

I’m trying to figure out how to automatically pull specific info from emails we get when someone requests a quote through our website. The emails follow the same format every time, and I want to break out the important parts so I can send them to Google Sheets (or wherever else down the line).

Here’s what a typical email looks like:

What I want is all of the information in the top section and then I want the date (I don’t need the time) All of the other information I don’t need. 

I’ve tried formatting by selecting text split and then selecting \n and all of that but I can’t seem to get it to separate. It keeps only having one input and output. Does anyone have any solutions? Thank you in advance

 

Hi ​@jonahgorski91,

 

Welcome to the Community.

This guide explains how to use Zapier's Email Parser to automatically extract specific details from incoming emails, such as name, email, phone number, location, and date, and send that data to Google Sheets. It involves setting up a parser mailbox, training it to identify key fields, and creating a Zap to trigger new emails and log the parsed data in a spreadsheet. The setup includes mapping fields, handling date formatting, testing the workflow, and ensuring consistency in email formatting. Tips are provided for error handling and updating the parser as email formats evolve.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further assistance.
