Step 2: Set Up the Trigger

  1. Enter a meaningful Workflow Name. e.g., “Tag Support Emails” or “Contact Form Handler.”
  2. Under the Inbox tab, choose New Message Received as the trigger.

Step 3: Define the Subject Condition

  1. Under the IF section:
    • Choose Subject from the dropdown.
    • Choose a condition type:
      • Contains – if you’re looking for a word/phrase within the subject.
      • Match – if the subject must exactly match your input.
  2. Enter the subject line or keyword you want to watch for.
    Example: [Contact Form], Support, Invoice #

You can add multiple subject-related conditions if needed using + Add Condition.

Step 4: Choose What Should Happen (Then)

Now it’s time to tell Taskip what to do when the subject condition is met.

Some useful actions:

  • Assign Tag – Example: “Contact Form”, “Urgent”
  • Move to Folder – Organize messages into inbox sections
  • Assign to Team Member – Automatically assign to the right person
  • Reply Email – Send an acknowledgment or automated response
  • Convert to Contact or Convert to Deal
  • Delete Conversation – it will delete the Email
  • Trigger Web-hook Call – it will trigger a web-hook call

You can chain multiple actions together using + Add Action.

Step 5: Save and Activate

  • Click Create Workflow to save it.
  • The automation will appear in your workflow list and should be marked Active.

Once set, Taskip will watch every incoming email and act immediately when a subject matches your rule.
