Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Watch me do this task once: [copy the invoice amount from the latest email from X into my Invoices sheet]. Turn it into a repeatable workflow: list the steps, which values change each run, and a trigger (new email). Mark anything without an API as a manual step.
