I'm creating a spreadsheet for customers and I'd like to be able to view email conversations I've had with them a little more efficiently. Right now I find the email address in the spreadsheet and then open Google sheets and search.

What I'd like is a link on my spreadsheet that opens Gmail and searches for emails automatically.

It's only a couple of steps saved but it's something I do quite frequently.

  • @illg If you want an addon or third party app recommendation please checkout Software Recommendations. Perhaps you will have luck and found a question posted by someone else already responded and if not you have the opportunity to post a question there.

  • I am aware that I can simply open the gmail conversation in gmail and copy the hyperlink to the spreadsheet but with hundreds of customers I'd like to find an easier way if possible.

If the email address is in cell B2:

=HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE("https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#search/from%3A", B2), "Read Emails")
