Daily Auto-Archive of Gmail Messages

## Who is this for? Professionals, solopreneurs, or productivity enthusiasts who want to keep their Gmail inbox clean and organized without manual effort. ## What problem does this solve? Manually archiving emails clutters your time and slows you down. This workflow automates inbox cleanup by removing the **INBOX** label from messages received over 24 hours ago. A perfect companion to AI-based labeling workflows, this keeps your inbox light and relevant. ## What this workflow does - Triggers every day at **4 AM** - Fetches Gmail messages from the **INBOX** that are **older than 24 hours** - Processes them one by one using the **Split Out** node - Removes the **INBOX** label, effectively archiving the messages ## Setup 1. Connect your Gmail account using OAuth2 credentials. 2. Customize the **Schedule Trigger** node to adjust the run time. 3. Modify the Gmail filter if you want to archive unread or labeled emails instead. ## How to customize this workflow to your needs - Schedule different frequencies (e.g., twice a day or weekly). ## ➜ Pairs Well With This complements the [Intelligent Email Organization with AI-Powered Content Classification](https://n8n.io/workflows/4557-intelligent-email-organization-with-ai-powered-content-classification-for-gmail/) workflow. Use that to **label emails smartly using AI**, and this one to **auto-archive** them for a clean, clutter-free inbox.
