Workflow Steps
1
Export email threads to a folder
Export emails as .txt or .eml files and give Cowork access to that folder.
2
Define what data to extract
Tell Cowork exactly what fields to pull from each email.
3
Extract data from all emails
Cowork processes each email and builds the structured dataset.
4
Clean and deduplicate the data
Remove duplicates and normalize formatting.
5
Save as CSV or formatted file
Save in the format that works best for your workflow.
Cowork Prompt Pack
Cowork-readyRead email files in my folder (read-only). For each email, list: sender, date, subject, and one-line summary. Do not write to any files.
Works best when you limit Cowork to specific folders and verify before destructive actions.
