Download email messages and file attachments from Gmail to Google Drive and Team Drives. Emails are archived as PDF files.Save Emails is a Gmail Archiving add-on to help you download email messages and file attachments from Gmail to Google Drive and Team Drives. The email threads are converted into high-quality print-ready PDF files while the file attachments are saved to Google Drive in their original format.
You can use the Gmail archiver to backup important emails, video files, photos, Microsoft Office documents, travel receipts, expenses and other emails easily from Gmail to your Google Drive. It works with Gmail, Google Inbox and G Suite (Google Apps) accounts.
Attorneys have used Save Emails to download and print all email correspondence related to a litigation with few clicks. Teachers can download student assignments in respective student folders automatically. Corporate users can save Uber receipts for claiming expenses. Sellers can archive PayPal invoices and payment receipts as PDFs.
How to Use Save Emails
---------------------------------
To get started, use the built-in wizard to create a rule and any email messages in Gmail that matches this rule will be automatically saved to a specific folder in your Google Drive. You can organize the saved emails in date-based sub folders to avoid cluttering the main folder.
Unlike email automation solutions like IFTTT or Zapier that only work on new and incoming messages, the Save Emails add-on can also send old emails to your Google Drive. All the activity is logged inside a Google Spreadsheet for quick search and reference.
Check the documentation at https://bitly.com/SaveGmailTutorials to know more about capabilities of Save Emails addon.
For instance, you can have a rule where emails from Expedia and Trip Advisor are automatically saved to the Travel folder in your Google Drive. Or a rule where all emails with "backup" in the subject line are saved to the project folder in Google Drive. If you are running out of space in your Gmail account, you can setup a rule for message size and all emails with large attachments are saved to Drive.
Advanced Uses
---------------------
You can customize the file names of saved emails and attachments with variables. For instance, you can set the attachment name as {{Sender}} {{Subject}} to include the sender's name and the email subject in the attachment file name.
You can also choose to overwrite files in Google Drive if an attachment with a similar name already exists in the same folder. Google Drive allows you to have multiple files with a similar name in the same folder.
