[Solved] How to have a script to search for emails inside Gmail using the resource?

Let me describe what i want to do manually and tell me roughly how to do this inside windmill.dev Manual Steps 1. search inside gmail [DigitalOcean] Your 2024-07 invoice is available and it will generate a list of emails (see attached image) 2. i want to iterate through each email 3. and then download each attachment (which is pdf) 4. and then do something to the pdf how to do this inside windmill given that i have the gmail resource installed (see attached), how do i use the resource in my script? I have read this https://www.windmill.dev/docs/core_concepts/resources_and_types#fetching-them-from-within-a-script-by-using-the-wmill-client-in-the-respective-language but i am still unsure how to use this. DO I use a script, flow, or app? all i know is i do gmail_resource = wmill.get_resource("u/kimsia/picturesque_gmail") then i am lost what to do next

write code (with potentially library) to do the operations that you need helped with the token

kimsiaOP•4mo ago

so you mean

gmail_resource = wmill.get_resource("u/kimsia/picturesque_gmail")
# do something with gmail_resource.token

gmail_resource = wmill.get_resource("u/kimsia/picturesque_gmail")
# do something with gmail_resource.token

like that? because when i go to https://hub.windmill.dev/resource_types/38/gmail, all i see is token

i have tried .get .token ["token"] all not suitable

["token"] should work in python

this is my code

def main(query: str):
    print(f"Hello World and a warm welcome search_gmail")

    gmail_resource = wmill.get_resource("u/kimsia/picturesque_gmail")
    oauth_token = gmail_resource["token"]

def main(query: str):
    print(f"Hello World and a warm welcome search_gmail")

    gmail_resource = wmill.get_resource("u/kimsia/picturesque_gmail")
    oauth_token = gmail_resource["token"]

this is the warning

rubenf•4mo ago
