Inbox Lead Triage Agent for n8n FAQ
Is this an actual n8n workflow?
Yes. The download contains an importable live workflow and a separate credential-free smoke test. The live workflow reads Gmail, runs structured AI triage, and creates Gmail drafts only.
Can I use this for client work?
Yes. Review outputs before sending them and do not resell the kit as-is.
Which AI should I use?
The workflow starts with an OpenAI chat model selected in n8n. You can change it, but rerun all ten acceptance tests before using another model live.
Does it ever send email automatically?
No. It contains a Gmail create-draft node and no send-email node. A person must review and send every reply.
