Email to myself action

Actions - Share What You've Made
1

As much as we hate to admit it, it is often handy to email a quick note to yourself.

The Email to myself was created to do exactly that.

It is easy to hard-code email addresses into recipient fields in a Mail step, but this action uses a script to create a credentials to store the email address used in the action, so the first time the action is run it will prompt for the email to use and remember it - and thus does not need to be edited to setup a recipient.

It then sends the mail in the background to that address, with the first line of the draft as the subject and remaining text as the body.

The problem with this action is that it doesn’t translate markdown.

So “Remember the milk” arrives, in my email, as “Remember the milk”

Change the “Send as HTML” option on the Mail action step. See action step documentation for details on configuring mail actions.
