Create Nextcloud Deck Cards from IMAP Emails

This workflow monitors an IMAP email inbox for new messages and automatically generates cards in a specified Nextcloud Deck board and stack. Upon receiving an email, it extracts the subject as the card title and processes the body to remove HTML tags, quotes, and formatting for clean text. An HTTP request then posts the data to the Nextcloud Deck API, creating a new card instantly.

Benefits include seamless email-to-task conversion, reducing manual entry and ensuring no important emails are overlooked. It marks emails as read to avoid duplicates and centralizes communications into your Deck kanban boards for better organization.

Ideal use cases: Personal productivity (turning newsletters or reminders into todos), team collaboration (client emails to project boards), or inbox zero workflows. Customize by updating Nextcloud URL, board/stack IDs, IMAP credentials, and user auth for quick setup.
