I have heard that setting up APIs for Apify, Gmail, and Google Drive should be quick, simple, and painless. @Chris Hall said it took him a few minutes to set up his initial Gmail API before he could use Claude to manage two inboxes. Has anyone had similar issues? I have multiple Gmail accounts (5+), and have invested at least 4 hours working with Claude to troubleshoot to no avail. Have any "more technical" searchers experienced this / think they have a fix?

I've been attending Jed's sessions on using Claude for search and had a quick win this morning. I own and operate one small business while also doing some consulting and searching for acquisitions under another. The end result I needed was summarised, archived newsletters; real human issues highlighted to me; replies drafted with knowledge of my business; and a report, whenever I run the command, that summarises both inboxes as part of my morning routine. It took about 40 minutes of thinking and back-and-forth with Claude to get the result I wanted. Anything I star is kept in the inbox. Anything not starred is archived on the next pass. This might help others trying to manage multiple inboxes and focus on what matters. Let me know if this was helpful, or feel free to critique the idea! Pre-requisites: 1. Claude Code on your desktop or another environment like Antigravity IDE 2. Claude understands your business/es (ask it!) 3. Claude connected to all gmail inboxes you want it to manage (ask it how!) Set it up with copy and paste: Copy the message below, replace the bits in [brackets] with your own details in plain English, and paste the whole thing into Claude. It'll do the setup for you and create a /email command you can run each morning. You won't touch a file. _____ I want a daily email routine, and a /email command I can type to run it. Please do all the setup yourself so I don't have to create any files. MY DETAILS - Businesses and inboxes to cover: [e.g. Acme (you@acme.com) and Beta (you@beta.com)] - A shared/team inbox I'm cc'd on but don't personally answer: [e.g. support@acme.com] - My booking link and default meeting length: [e.g. calendly.com/me, 30 minutes] - My writing voice in a few words: [e.g. warm, direct, short sentences, no em dashes] - Newsletters I want KEPT in my inbox (archive all other newsletters): [e.g. none, or name a couple] - Newsletters to file but NOT mention in the summary: [e.g. none] - Tags for sorting threads: [e.g. Customers, Vendors, Applicants]

Many thanks to those who have shared their Buy Box before me. Calling out @Daniel Andrzejek and @Eli Kiani whose inspired portions of my Buy Box. I also found that leveraging Claude to evaluate my general criteria and improve my Buy Box was extremely valuable. Happy to chat!

Hey all, attaching my buy box. Welcome any feedback - thanks!

Thanks for getting everybody configured for the next steps. Attached is the buy box document you requested as our homework. Open to all feedback!
