Email Integration

PrimeThink allows you to interact with Tasks and Chats directly via email. When email integration is enabled, you can send emails to specific addresses and receive AI-powered responses back in your inbox.


Email-to-Task

When you send an email to a task's dedicated email address:

  1. The system verifies that you are a member of the group that owns the task
  2. Your email content (including any attachments) is processed by the task's configured action
  3. You receive the task's response directly in your email inbox

Requirements

  • Email integration must be enabled on the task
  • You must be sending from an email address associated with your user account
  • Your account must belong to the group that owns the task

Task Email Address Format

{group-name}-{task-uuid}@tasks.primethink.ai

Example:

marketing-a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890@tasks.primethink.ai


Email-to-Chat

When you send an email to a chat's dedicated email address:

  1. The system verifies that you are a member of the group that owns the chat
  2. Your email message (including any attachments) is added to the chat as your message
  3. The AI processes your message and generates a response
  4. You receive the AI's reply in your email inbox, threaded as part of the same email conversation

Requirements

  • Email integration must be enabled on the chat
  • You must be sending from an email address associated with your user account
  • Your account must belong to the group that owns the chat

Chat Email Address Format

{group-name}-{chat-uuid}@chats.primethink.ai

Example:

sales-b2c3d4e5-f6a7-8901-bcde-f23456789012@chats.primethink.ai

Email Threading

Replies from the chat are threaded in your email client, so the entire conversation stays organized in a single email thread. This makes it easy to follow the conversation history directly from your inbox.
