Send a daily digest with Gmail
Runs on a schedule across Gmail, Google Sheets and Slack, rolls the rows up into a few numbers, then runs the custom logic in a Code node. Built for auto-responders, around a "Gather from Google Sheets" step, in 17 documented nodes.
Send a daily digest with Google Sheets and Gmail automatically. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Scheduled Digest' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 17 nodes across Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. The result is a hands-off process that just works.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Gmail and Google Sheets in step for auto-responders, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed Gmail or Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 17 nodes in this auto-responders build
- ✓Every auto-responders run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Gmail
- ✓Fans the same result out to Slack in the same run, for auto-responders
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 17 nodes for auto-responders before wiring Gmail
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Gmail and Google Sheets aligned by hand for auto-responders
- →Auto-responders work where "Gather from Google Sheets" is still a manual step before Gmail
- →Auto-responders work that only reaches Gmail on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
- 2Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
- 3Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.
What you'll learn
Advanced levelAdds branching depth and audit logging on top of the core pattern.
- •Collecting from multiple sources and blending them into one stream
- •Rolling many rows up into a few reportable numbers
- •Archiving each run for an audit trail
Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.
Common questions
What exactly do I get?
The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.
How do I import it into n8n?
In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.
Do I need anything else for it to work?
You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack). No coding is required.
What if it doesn't work for me?
If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.
Can I modify or resell it?
You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
