Email Data ParserTASKWork only with one opened email with all relevant text expanded. Extract user-specified fields into a single structured record with missing values flagged. Create a CSV file named webact-email-data-parser.csv. Keep the complete file under 48,000 UTF-8 bytes. Use only observed content and facts I supply. Keep missing values unknown. Preserve IDs, dates, units and currencies. Report omitted, truncated or unreadable content; do not claim full coverage. Verify the output against the source and stop if the required input is unavailable. Processes opened email text on demand; no monitored mailbox or automatic inbound trigger. Keep one header row, consistent columns, escaped quotes and literal spreadsheet-safe text. Ask me for any required settings or source facts that are missing before starting. Start with up to 25 records or one short document. Report exactly which source content was included. Setup: Name the email fields and column order you want before running the extraction.
Paste in Task mode with Browser model selected.
Make it yours. Name the email fields and column order you want before running the extraction.

Chat or Task? Choose your modeIs there a ready-made task in the extension?
Yes. Open Library → Examples and choose “Email details to CSV”. Supply any requested inputs, choose the source area and review the task before running it.
Which part of the workflow does WebAct perform?
Extract selected fields from an opened email into a CSV for manual import. This browser recipe does not include: Incoming-email trigger, continuous mailbox access and automatic Google Sheets writes.
When is this useful?
Use this for a small extraction from an email you already have open: choose the fields, create a CSV and check it against the original. It avoids setting up forwarding rules for that one task. Existing free email parsers may suit recurring workflows better. WebAct does not monitor your inbox or guarantee a more accurate result.
What input does this Email Data Parser need?
one opened email with all relevant text expanded. Expand the relevant content and share only the context needed for this task.
What should I check in the result?
Order ID AB42, amount 62, currency USD, delivery date. Processes opened email text on demand; no monitored mailbox or automatic inbound trigger.
Does it monitor my inbox?
Open and expand the email content you want to use. These are tasks you start on the current page; they do not monitor new mail or inspect unread attachment contents.
Can I use this on the Free plan?
Yes. Install the Chrome extension, verify your WebAct account and use an available ChatGPT browser connection in the same Chrome profile. Free includes 25 user-started automation tasks per calendar month (UTC), shared across all tools. A task counts when its first action starts; steps and necessary retries within that task do not count separately. Provider limits apply. After 25 tasks, upgrade or wait for the reset.
Does this page run the task?
This page provides an illustrative example and a task to copy. Run it through WebAct on the source page you activate. Selected page context is processed by your browser AI provider. An ordinary answer in browser Chat uses no WebAct automation allowance; creating a file or changing fields in Task mode does.
Workflow reference: Zapier template or automation listing. WebAct provides the scoped browser task described above.
