I'm trying to create a Gmail web add-in using apps-script in which I am trying to do the following things:

  1. make an API call on receiving an email.
  2. label emails.
  3. move emails to
  4. spam. get all emails of a specific folder.

Is this possible? If Yes then how? Please give me the links to any documentation or tutorials for the same.

It is sort of possible, but you should be aware that Gmail Add-ons can be triggered either by opening an email or opening compose Ui both by explicit user interaction with Gmail, not when an email is recieved (though, Gmail Add-ons platform is growing and this trigger can be added in the near future).

As for the actions 2-4, they are entirely possible, you should take a look at the following references:

  1. Gmail Add-ons guide and reference;
  2. GitHub repo with sample Add-ons from Google;
  3. OAuth2.0 library for 3P service calls (if it authenticates via OAuth2.0);
  4. Gmail service reference for apps script.

This should definitely help you get started, happy coding!
