Mailhook and Monday: Leave Request Email to People-Ops Board Template

Turn leave-request emails into tidy Monday board items your people-ops team can review and approve, all from a single email address.

What It Builds

This template gives your workflow its own @mailhook.spojit.com address. When an employee emails a time-off request to it, the Mailhook trigger starts a run, a Connector node in Agent mode reads the message and pulls out the employee name, dates, leave type, and reason as structured fields, and a Monday Connector node creates a new item on your people-ops board for the team to approve.

The Prompt

Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:

Build a workflow with a Mailhook trigger so employees can email leave requests to a dedicated address. Extract the employee name, leave type, start date, end date, and reason from the email, then create a new item on my Monday "Leave Requests" board with those fields filled in and a status of Pending Approval.

Connectors Used

  • Mailhook - the trigger; every email to the generated address starts a run, exposing the sender, subject, and body.
  • Monday - creates the board item with the extracted leave details.

Customize It

Change the board name, the status label, or which fields you capture (for example add a department or manager column). You can also point the prompt at a different group within the board so requests land in the right team's section.

Tips

  • Make sure your Monday connection has access to the target board, and that the column names in the prompt match real columns.
  • Use Agent mode for the extraction step so Miraxa can handle free-form wording like "off next Mon-Fri"; switch the Monday create step to Direct mode for a fixed, predictable action.
  • Add a Human approval node after the item is created if you want a manager to sign off inside Spojit before the request is marked approved.
