Confirm received support emails and log them into Google Sheets
Stop wondering if you missed support requests. Automatically reply to every help email, and keep perfect, up-to-date records in Google Sheets—without lifting a finger.
Struggling to keep up with incoming support emails can be overwhelming and costly. Without automation, every message requires manual acknowledgment, tracking, and data entry—eating up hours each week and risking customer frustration if replies are delayed or queries fall through the cracks. The result? Lost time, poor team visibility into support volume, and potential drops in customer satisfaction, all of which can hurt your brand and bottom line.
This Botize formula takes the pain out of support email handling by automatically scanning your inbox every hour for emails with subjects related to support, help, or issues. When it detects a relevant message, it instantly sends a personalized confirmation reply to the sender and logs every important detail—from timestamp to message content—into your Google Sheets. All you need to do is link your email account and customize the confirmation template. The entire process goes from tedious and error-prone to seamless and hands-off, letting your team stay organized and responsive.
Ready to upgrade your support workflow? Follow the simple Botize setup to automate your responses and support log in just a few clicks—plus personalize frequency, keyword filters, and responses to match your needs. If you prefer to skip straight to an all-set automation, check out this formula and see customer support transformed from chaos to calm.

Instant Support Email Confirmations & Organized Logs—No More Uncertainty
Here's how it works: Any time your inbox receives a message that smells like a support request (keywords: 'help', 'issue', 'problem', you know the drill), your automation instantly fires off a warm, pre-written response confirming you got it. No customer left hanging, ever. Then, all the details drop straight into your Google Sheets like magic—timestamped, organized, and ready for you (or your team) to track, prioritize, or analyze. It’s the invisible admin you wish you had.

This automation uses your email account to receive incoming messages. If the subject contains support-related keywords, the automation replies automatically using a template message and saves the email data into Google Sheets. You will need to connect your personal email account (IMAP/SMTP) to Botize. You will also need to customize the template message that will be sent to the user.
