Automatically send yourself a daily digest

To automatically receive a daily digest, you’ll typically need to set it up through an email service, productivity tool, or automation platform. Here’s how to do it using popular methods:

1. Using Google Sheets + Google Apps Script (for custom summaries)

Create a script that sends a daily email with data or summaries.

Steps:

• Open Google Sheets.

• Go to Extensions > Apps Script.

• Use this code:

javascript
CopyEdit
function sendDailyDigest() {
  var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet();
  var data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
  var emailBody = "Daily Digest:nn";

  for (var i = 1; i < data.length; i++) {
    emailBody += data[i].join(" | ") + "n";
  }

  MailApp.sendEmail("youremail@example.com", "Daily Digest", emailBody);
}

function createTrigger() {
  ScriptApp.newTrigger("sendDailyDigest")
    .timeBased()
    .everyDays(1)
    .atHour(8)
    .create();
}

• Save and run createTrigger once to activate.

2. Using Zapier (No-code Automation)

Set up a Zap to collect data and send it via email every day.

Steps:

• Trigger: Choose an app like Google Calendar, Notion, or RSS feed.

• Action: Use “Send Email” or “Digest by Zapier” to compile and send the summary.

• Schedule: Daily at a specific time.

3. Using Notion + Notion Automation Tools

If you use Notion, tools like Notion Automations or Make.com can compile databases and email you a digest.

4. Using Slack or Teams for Team Digests

• Use bots like “DailyBot” or “Geekbot” to post daily summaries automatically to a channel or DM.
