AI Auto-Save Gmail Receipts to Google Sheets + Drive

This workflow targets freelancers, business owners, and finance teams dealing with receipt-heavy inboxes. It solves the chaos of tax season by automatically capturing, processing, and organizing receipts from Gmail emails labeled 'receipt'. No more manual entry or lost files—everything is centralized for audits and tracking.

Here's how it operates: A schedule trigger (e.g., daily at 8 AM) scans for unread emails with the 'receipt' label. Attachments are downloaded, text extracted, and originals uploaded to a Google Drive folder. Email metadata merges with extracted text, then OpenAI structures key fields like date, merchant, category, description, subtotal, tax, and total. This data appends as a new row in your Google Sheet, and the email is marked read to avoid duplicates.

Benefits include massive time savings, error-free data capture via AI, and seamless integration across Gmail, Drive, Sheets, and OpenAI. Ideal for expense tracking in crypto wallets, general business, or any receipt volume scenario. Setup requires connecting credentials and configuring the Drive folder and schedule—run effortlessly thereafter.
