🎓 How to transform unstructured email data into structured format with AI agent

This workflow automates the process of extracting structured, usable information from unstructured email messages across multiple platforms. It connects directly to Gmail, Outlook, and IMAP accounts, retrieves incoming emails, and sends their content to an AI-powered parsing agent built on OpenAI GPT models. The AI agent analyzes each email, identifies relevant details, and returns a clean JSON structure containing key fields: From – sender’s email address To – recipient’s email address Subject – email subject line Summary – short AI-generated summary of the email body The extracted information is then automatically inserted into an n8n Data Table, creating a structured database of email metadata and summaries ready for indexing, reporting, or integration with other tools. --- Key Benefits ✅ Full Automation: Eliminates manual reading and data entry from incoming emails. ✅ Multi-Source Integration: Handles data from different email providers seamlessly. ✅ AI-Driven Accuracy: Uses advanced language models to interpret complex or unformatted content. ✅ Structured Storage: Creates a standardized, query-ready dataset from previously unstructured text. ✅ Time Efficiency: Processes emails in real time, improving productivity and response speed. *✅ Scalability: Easily extendable to handle additional sources or extract more data fields. --- How it works This workflow automates the transformation of unstructured email data into a structured, queryable format. It operates through a series of connected steps: Email Triggering: The workflow is initiated by one of three different email triggers (Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, or a generic IMAP account), which constantly monitor for new incoming emails. AI-Powered Parsing & Structuring: When a new email is detected, its raw, unstructured content is passed to a central "Parsing Agent." This agent uses a specified OpenAI language model to intelligently analyze the email text. Data Extraction & Standardization: Following a predefined system prompt, the AI agent extracts key information from the email, such as the sender, recipient, subject, and a generated summary. It then forces the output into a strict JSON structure using a "Structured Output Parser" node, ensuring data consistency. Data Storage: Finally, the clean, structured data (the from, to, subject, and summarize fields) is inserted as a new row into a specified n8n Data Table, creating a searchable and reportable database of email information. --- Set up steps To implement this workflow, follow these configuration steps: Prepare the Data Table: Create a new Data Table within n8n. Define the columns with the following names and string type: From, To, Subject, and Summary. Configure Email Credentials: Set up the credential connections for the email services you wish to use (Gmail OAuth2, Microsoft Outlook OAuth2, and/or IMAP). Ensure the accounts have the necessary permissions to read emails. Configure AI Model Credentials: Set up the OpenAI API credential with a valid API key. The workflow is configured to use the model, but this can be changed in the respective nodes if needed. Connect the Nodes: The workflow canvas is already correctly wired. Visually confirm that the email triggers are connected to the "Parsing Agent," which is connected to the "Insert row" (Data Table) node. Also, ensure the "OpenAI Chat Model" and "Structured Output Parser" are connected to the "Parsing Agent" as its AI model and output parser, respectively. Activate the Workflow: Save the workflow and toggle the "Active" switch to ON. The triggers will begin polling for new emails according to their schedule (e.g., every minute), and the automation will start processing incoming messages. --- Need help customizing?

Document RAG & chat agent: Google Drive to Qdrant with Mistral OCR

Knowledge RAG & AI Chat Agent: Google Drive to Qdrant Description This workflow transforms a Google Drive folder into an intelligent, searchable knowledge base and provides a chat agent to query it. It’s composed of two distinct flows: An ingestion pipeline to process documents. A live chat agent that uses RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and optional web search to answer user questions. This system fully automates the creation of a “Chat with your docs” solution and enhances it with external web-searching capabilities. --- Quick Implementation Steps Import the workflow JSON into your n8n instance. Set up credentials for Google Drive, Mistral AI, OpenAI, and Qdrant. Open the Web Search node and add your Tavily AI API key to the Authorization header. In the Google Drive (List Files) node, set the Folder ID you want to ingest. Run the workflow manually once to populate your Qdrant database (Flow 1). Activate the workflow to enable the chat trigger (Flow 2). Copy the public webhook URL from the When chat message received node and open it in a new tab to start chatting. --- What It Does The workflow is divided into two primary functions: Knowledge Base Ingestion (Manual Trigger) This flow populates your vector database. Scans Google Drive: Lists all files from a specified folder. Processes Files Individually: Downloads each file. Extracts Text via OCR: Uses Mistral AI OCR API for text extraction from PDFs, images, etc. Generates Smart Metadata: A Mistral LLM assigns metadata like documenttype, project, and assignedto. Chunks & Embeds: Text is cleaned, chunked, and embedded via OpenAI’s text-embedding-3-small model. Stores in Qdrant: Text chunks, embeddings, and metadata are stored in a Qdrant collection (docaiauto). AI Chat Agent (Chat Trigger) This flow powers the conversational interface. Handles User Queries: Triggered when a user sends a chat message. Internal RAG Retrieval: Searches Qdrant Vector Store first for answers. Web Search Fallback: If unavailable internally, the agent offers to perform a Tavily AI web search. Contextual Responses: Combines internal and external info for comprehensive answers. --- Who's It For Ideal for: Teams building internal AI knowledge bases from Google Drive. Developers creating AI-powered support, research, or onboarding bots. Organizations implementing RAG pipelines. Anyone making unstructured Google Drive documents searchable via chat. --- Requirements n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud). Google Drive Credentials (to list and download files). Mistral AI API Key (for OCR & metadata extraction). OpenAI API Key (for embeddings and chat LLM). Qdrant instance (cloud or self-hosted). Tavily AI API Key (for web search). --- How It Works The workflow runs two independent flows in parallel: Flow 1: Ingestion Pipeline (Manual Trigger) List Files: Fetch files from Google Drive using the Folder ID. Loop & Download: Each file is processed one by one. OCR Processing: Upload file to Mistral Retrieve signed URL Extract text using Mistral DOC OCR Metadata Extraction: Analyze text using a Mistral LLM. Text Cleaning & Chunking: Split into 1000-character chunks. Embeddings Creation: Use OpenAI embeddings. Vector Insertion: Push chunks + metadata into Qdrant. Flow 2: AI Chat Agent (Chat Trigger) Chat Trigger: Starts when a chat message is received. AI Agent: Uses OpenAI + Simple Memory to process context. RAG Retrieval: Queries Qdrant for related data. Decision Logic: Found → Form answer. Not found → Ask if user wants web search. Web Search: Performs Tavily web lookup. Final Response: Synthesizes internal + external info. --- How To Set Up Import the Workflow Upload the provided JSON into your n8n instance. Configure Credentials Create and assign: Google Drive → Google Drive nodes Mistral AI → Upload, Signed URL, DOC OCR, Cloud Chat Model OpenAI → Embeddings + Chat Model nodes Qdrant → Vector Store nodes Add Tavily API Key Open Web Search node → Parameters → Headers Add your key under Authorization (e.g., tvly-xxxx). Node Configuration Google Drive (List Files): Set Folder ID. Qdrant Nodes: Ensure same collection name (docaiauto). Run Ingestion (Flow 1) Click Test workflow to populate Qdrant with your Drive documents. Activate Chat (Flow 2) Toggle the workflow ON to enable real-time chat. Test Open the webhook URL and start chatting! --- How To Customize Change LLMs: Swap models in OpenAI or Mistral nodes (e.g., GPT-4o, Claude 3). Modify Prompts: Edit the system message in ai chat agent to alter tone or logic. Chunking Strategy: Adjust chunkSize and chunkOverlap in the Code node. Different Sources: Replace Google Drive with AWS S3, Local Folder, etc. Automate Updates: Add a Cron node for scheduled ingestion. Validation: Add post-processing steps after metadata extraction. Expand Tools: Add more functional nodes like Google Calendar or Calculator. --- Use Case Examples Internal HR Bot: Answer HR-related queries from stored policy docs. Tech Support Assistant: Retrieve troubleshooting steps for products. Research Assistant: Summarize and compare market reports. Project Management Bot: Query document ownership or project status. --- Troubleshooting Guide | Issue | Possible Solution | |------------|------------------------| | Chat agent doesn’t respond | Check OpenAI API key and model availability (e.g., gpt-4.1-mini). | | Known documents not found | Ensure ingestion flow ran and both Qdrant nodes use same collection name. | | OCR node fails | Verify Mistral API key and input file integrity. | | Web search not triggered | Re-check Tavily API key in Web Search node headers. | | Incorrect metadata | Tune Information Extractor prompt or use a stronger Mistral model. | --- Need Help or More Workflows?
