This automation scenario allows you to connect ShipStation and Gmail
It can be build using Integromat, a no-code workflow automation tool. Integromat allows you to create automated bots using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.
ShipStation and Gmail can also be integrated using automation tools other than integromat:
