|
| To use GmailLoader you must install the extra dependencies with `pip install --upgrade embedchain[gmail]`. |
|
|
| The `source` must be a valid Gmail search query, you can refer `https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7190?hl=en` to build a query. |
|
|
| To load Gmail messages, you MUST use the data_type as `gmail`. Otherwise the source will be detected as simple `text`. |
|
|
| To use this you need to save `credentials.json` in the directory from where you will run the loader. Follow these steps to get the credentials |
|
|
| 1. Go to the [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials). |
| 2. Create a project if you don't have one already. |
| 3. Create an `OAuth Consent Screen` in the project. You may need to select the `external` option. |
| 4. Make sure the consent screen is published. |
| 5. Enable the [Gmail API](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/gmail.googleapis.com) |
| 6. Create credentials from the `Credentials` tab. |
| 7. Select the type `OAuth Client ID`. |
| 8. Choose the application type `Web application`. As a name you can choose `embedchain` or any other name as per your use case. |
| 9. Add an authorized redirect URI for `http://localhost:8080/`. |
| 10. You can leave everything else at default, finish the creation. |
| 11. When you are done, a modal opens where you can download the details in `json` format. |
| 12. Put the `.json` file in your current directory and rename it to `credentials.json` |
|
|
| ```python |
| from embedchain import App |
|
|
| app = App() |
|
|
| gmail_filter = "to: me label:inbox" |
| app.add(gmail_filter, data_type="gmail") |
| app.query("Summarize my email conversations") |
| ``` |
