How to connect Gmail and Ninox

Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Gmail and Ninox integration: Create a new workflow and add the first step

Auto-convert OneDrive Word documents to PDF with Foxit and send via Gmail

This n8n template demonstrates how to add a document conversion process to incoming Word documents in a OneDrive folder. Documents are converted to PDF and emailed to a reviewer. Use cases would be environments where incoming documents are dropped into cloud storage and a human needs to review them. By converting to PDF, it becomes easier to read in a consistent format in the browser. How it works Listen for new files added in a OneDrive folder, identified by an ID Download the bits of the new document if the file was a Micrsoft Word document (the API I'm using can convert any Office document, but wanted to start simple) Upload to Foxit's API service, convert to PDF, and download when done Use GMail to mail the PDF to a human reviewer. How to use You'll need to determine a OneDrive folder ID to monitor, or select an entire account instead, just be careful when testing. When the workflow is done, it emails to myself, so please connect your own GMail and set a preferred email address for testing. Requirements A Microsoft OneDrive account Foxit developer account (https://developer-api.foxit.com) A Gmail account At least one Word document - we all have that, right? Next Steps This workflow could be modified to work with any Office style document, and could also upload the PDF version back to OneDrive.
