I have a contact form on my site which I’d like to receive the message in gmail (then add sender as subscriber to convertkit).

I got the following error:

- `Validation failed for 1 parameter(s).`
- `Invalid number in parameter 'id'.`

What should I put under Email ID (UID)?

To use the Gmail “Copy an Email” module, you’ll need a reference to an existing Gmail email first. Usually this is used in conjunction with the “Watch Emails” trigger module.

So, you might be thinking of the wrong module if you want to “Send yourself an email”.

Try looking at the [other Gmail modules](https://www.make.com/en/integrations/google-email) to see which one sends an email.
