Automate Monthly Gmail Spam Cleanup with Gmail API

This n8n workflow uses the Gmail API to automatically delete all emails in the spam folder on the first day of each month, optimizing email management and storage.

The workflow is designed to enhance Gmail hygiene by permanently removing spam emails on a monthly basis. It begins with a scheduled trigger on the first day of each month, fetches all emails labeled as spam using the Gmail API, introduces a short delay to comply with API rate limits, and then deletes the fetched spam emails. This process helps in maintaining a clean inbox and efficient storage management.
