# 👋 Hey fellow Gliders!

As a followup to my [🕒 Scheduled Workflows Tutorial](https://community.glideapps.com/t/scheduled-workflows-tutorial/81217), I wanted to showcase how you can automatically import email attachments directly into a Glide app using the Email Trigger.

This feature is perfect for:  
→ Resume screening  
→ Expense recording  
→ Image analysis  
→ CSV importing

In this video, we walk through a practical example of creating a receipt scanner that automatically adds invoices and receipts to your Glide app by simply forwarding an email. We cover how to loop through attachments, extract content with AI, prevent duplicate entries, and even explore advanced scenarios like notifying supervisors of new expenses.

### 🍿Enjoy!
