To receive emails sent to your Gmail account as tasks, make the following settings:
In the "Forwarding" section on this tab, click on the "Add a forwarding address" button. In the new window that opens, you can enter the address “email-to-task@cubicl.io” to which e-mails will be forwarded to our system, and click the Next button. You can confirm the process from the new window.
Your e-mail forwarding request will be sent to us for approval and approved by us within a few minutes. After a few minutes, you can check whether the redirect is approved by refreshing the redirect settings page. If the forwarding process is still not approved after a few minutes, please contact us at support@cubicl.io.
After we approve your forwarding request, check the boxes for "Forward a copy of the incoming mail to email-to-task@cubicl.io" and "keep Gmail's copy in the Inbox" option. This will also keep a copy of the forwarded emails in your Gmail account. Finally, you can save your settings by clicking the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page.
After saving the settings, a notification text will appear at the top of the page that your emails have been forwarded. To ensure that your e-mails are received accurately and completely by our system, please do not change your forwarding settings.
Click on the three dots icon next to the email box to adjust email settings.
You can give the e-mail box a different name than the e-mail, such as "Recruitment", "Support Mails". To do this, click on Settings from the three dots next to the email.
When an email created as a task in Cubicl, it is also marked as read in your email box. If this setting is turned off, emails coming in the email box will appear as unread. To do this, click on Settings from the three dots next to the email.
Emails are created as tasks under the selected project. The project is selected while connecting email. However, this project can be changed later. To do this, click on Settings from the three dots next to the email.

To select assignees, click on the three dots next to the email and choose the Settings option.
Assign Client Managers as Assignees:
You can assign managers for each customer individually from the Clients > Client Details page. These client managers are assigned as assignees for tasks from incoming emails and portal requests. Enabling this option in the mailbox ensures that client managers, if assigned to the client, will be assigned as the assignees for the tasks instead of the mailbox assignees. If this option is not enabled or no manager is assigned to the client, the mailbox assignees will be assigned to the task.
You can add the email signature as text or HTML. When you reply to an email from Cubicl, the signature is visible to the recipient. To do this, click on Settings from the three dots next to the email.
If the sender name is entered in the email box, the sender name appears when an email is sent. If the sender name is not entered, the name of the person sending the e-mail will be shown to the recipient in the e-mail. To do this, click on Settings from the three dots next to the email.
If the password of the e-mail box has changed, you must also change the password from the E-mail boxes page. Otherwise, a connection error occurs and emails will not be created as tasks. To do this, click on the three dots icon next to the email box.
You can prevent emails containing certain words from creating a task in Cubicl. To use this feature, open the menu of an email on the Email boxes page and click on the Black List option. The Black List page has two tabs.

On the Words tab, the words that you have blocked are listed. To block a new word/phrase, type a word, click the Add+ button and save it.
The words you have added will be searched in e-mails regardless of uppercase or lowercase letters. From now on, no task will be created in Cubicl for e-mails containing these words in their subject or content. To delete the words you have blocked, you can click the Delete button that appears when you hover your mouse over the word.
When an e-mail drops your inbox, a task is created at Cubicl for it. You get a notification.
The Subject line is the name of the task. Incoming Email button shows under the name of the task to seperate incoming mails from created tasks at the Cubicl by you or your teammates. At the activities, name and e-mail of the sender, receivers, e-mail context and file/s are shown. The sender is added as a Client automatically.
There are two buttons at the bottom of the incoming mails. If the content of the e-mail is higher than the maximum height of the activity box, Expand Content button is shown, you can view the entire content by clicking this button.
Show Quote button is displayed in the quoted e-mail contents. By clicking this button, you can view both the quote and the entire content.
You can ignore senders by selecting the "Ignore Sender" option from the action menu of the task activity. You can also view and edit ignored senders from the action menu of the relevant e-mail box.
Before sending an e-mail, you can edit sender and To and CC. For this, before clicking send the e-mail, click on the "Edit" button that appears when you hover over the e-mail you write. The e-mail accounts that appear in the From section are only e-mails that you have integrated into Cubicl. You can change the e-mail account (From) and recipients (TO and CC fields) to which the mail will be sent. After making the changes, you can send the e-mail by clicking "Send e-mail".
You can reply to the incoming e-mails from the activities of the task. Your reply is first shown as Not Sent at the corner of your comment. When you hover the mouse over that, the Send as an e-mail button emerges. When you click it, the e-mail will be sent.

Emails sent via Cubicl are also added to the Sent box of the email box.

A new task is created for every meeting invitation you receive.
If you want to disconnect your e-mail account from Cubicl, you can delete it by clicking three dots at the connected e-mail card on E-mail Boxes page. To delete or update the email box, you must either have linked the e-mail yourself or have permission on the page.
You cannot reply to mails via Cubicl after deleting the e-mail account. If you try to send a comment as an e-mail via Cubicl, an error warning will pop up.
Here, you can find some examples how E-mail Boxes could be used for teams and departments.
Connect your info, contact or support email accounts. Support team receives those mails as a task and take action easily.
You can answers e-mails from your clients for their requests, or technical problems, or product that they buy. Support team can assign the task to another department, if it is necessary.
So, you take action easily and answer emails quickly. Your customers will be pleased with your service.
Connect the e-mail addresses of your company such as humanresources@companyname.com, which are used for departments such as human resources, accounting, sales. Imcoming mails related with those department drop related projects in Cubicl.
E-mail senders may not always send emails to the right email accounts. In such cases, you can drag and drop the task to the relevant project. As can be seen in the example below, "Application for React Native Developer" mail is sent to Customer Services department. However, the task is related with Human Resources department, so we drag and drop the task to that team.
You can talk about the applicant with your teammates on task. The activities under the task will not be shown to the email sender unless you click the "send as a email."
Instead of reaching the applicant by phone call or email, you can contact her via Cubicl and follow activities on the task.
You do not have to follow all recruitment process under one task. For example, if pre-interview or team meetings are conducted by different assignees, you can add sub-steps or sub-tasks under the task.
You can manage all recruitment process.
Follow up on request from different units, departments or offices of your company. Cubicl is a team communication and task management application for companies, but you do not have to add all departments or employees to your Cubicl account. For short-term tasks, an employee or a deparment can reach you via e-mail and you can manage their requests via Cubicl.
You can create tasks in Cubicl from meeting invitations or calendar events sent to you by connecting your personal or work email accounts at Profile page > Email Box Settings tab.

Emails with a meeting invitation/calendar event and emails with a meeting link for Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet are defined as meeting/event emails. For other e-mails, no action is taken.
You can add as many e-mail as you like using your profile page.
