Mark as read - Automate.ax

gmail.markMessagesAsRead removes Gmail’s UNREAD label from messages.

Example

Mark each newly received automated receipt as read:

import { automation, filter } from "automate.ax"
import { gmail } from "automate.ax/gmail"

export default automation("Read automated receipts", () => {
  const receipt = filter(gmail.onNewEmail(), (message) =>
    message.subject.toLowerCase().includes("receipt"),
  )

  gmail.markMessagesAsRead({ messageIds: receipt.messageId })
})

Inputs

Name	Type	Required	Description
`messageIds`	`string \| string[]`	Yes	One or up to 1,000 immutable Gmail message IDs.
Second argument: `{ account }`	`string \| Google account reference`	No	Google Account binding. Defaults to the project binding.

Inputs accept compatible signals.

Output

Returns a Signal<string[]> with the modified message IDs in input order. Gmail stores read state per message using UNREAD. Marking one message as read doesn’t necessarily mark the other messages in its thread as read.
