Run workflows on incoming email.

​
Overview

Email-based workflows are triggered by incoming emails. You can designate a unique email address for each workflow, such as prefix.my-app@fastgenapp.com. Whenever an email is sent to this address, the corresponding workflow will be initiated.

You can access details of the incoming email using the $param variable.
