How to route inbox messages into a table with a workflow with Kition

Connect email and use a visual workflow to add incoming messages to a table as records.

Credentials. Connecting an email account gives Kition access to mail, so use a dedicated account where possible and review the connection settings.

Who it is forAn operations or support person who triages a shared inbox and wants new messages logged in a table without manual copying.

The problemReading mail and copying details into a tracker by hand is repetitive and easy to miss.

The outcomeA table that receives inbox messages as new records through a workflow you can test and inspect.

What you need first

  • A macOS, Windows, or Linux (experimental x86_64) computer to install the desktop app from GitHub Releases
  • A model or account setup inside Kition for the Agent and AI fields (the README mentions model and account settings but does not detail the providers)
  • For source builds only: Node.js 22.19.0, pnpm 10.33.0, Rust (stable), and the Tauri system prerequisites for your platform
  • Back up important workspaces before relying on the beta app

Steps

  1. Install the Kition desktop build from GitHub Releases.
  2. Follow the Email Connections guide in the docs folder to connect your mailbox.
  3. Create a table to receive the messages and a workflow that uses an inbox trigger and a table action.
  4. Test each workflow step individually and resolve any missing inputs before enabling it.
  5. Check the run history to confirm records were created as expected.

Prompt for your agent

In the Kition desktop app, open the workflow <workflow name> that moves inbox messages into the table <table name>. Ask the Agent to report the run history for the last run and list any step with missing inputs, and confirm the records match the messages.

Caveat. The README says the Email Connections details live in a separate doc, so check that guide for supported providers before you start.
