Auto-Create Customer Support Tickets from Email → Slack Alert → AI Priority Score
Automatically convert customer emails into support tickets, notify your team via Slack, and use AI to assign priority scores based on urgency indicators.
Workflow Steps
Gmail
Monitor inbox for new emails
Set up n8n to watch a dedicated support email address (like support@company.com) for new incoming messages. Configure the Gmail node to trigger whenever a new email arrives with specific labels or in certain folders.
OpenAI GPT-4
Analyze email for urgency and priority
Send the email content to OpenAI's API to extract key information: customer sentiment, issue type, and urgency level (1-10 scale). Use a prompt that identifies keywords like 'urgent,' 'down,' 'broken,' or 'ASAP' to assign priority scores.
Linear
Create support ticket with AI metadata
Automatically create a new ticket in Linear (or Jira/Monday.com) with the email subject as title, body as description, and attach the AI-generated priority score and issue category as labels or custom fields.
Slack
Send priority-based team notification
Post a message to your support team's Slack channel with ticket details. For high-priority issues (score 7+), send to a separate urgent channel and tag specific team members using @channel or individual mentions.
