I have a scenario that uses a mailhook, with then goes through an interation to extract attachments, then saves the attachments into a Dropbox folder. Currently it is triggered as soon as the mailhook receives an email. I am wondering if there is a way to trigger it, say once, and it gather ALL the attachments from every email that has landed in the mailbox over the past 6 months, and put them all together in a folder in Dropbox?
Is there a way to see what mail/attachments the email is receiving prior to running the scenario?
Welcome to the Make community!
A mailhook is not suitable for running once every 6 months, since there is a queue limit.
You might want to use the Email module to fetch emails from the specified date range first.

Thanks so much for the reply!!
My issue is that I have this scenario duplicated for every new client. And every new client needs a different email, as this is what distinguishes the jobs from each other when saving data. So, unless I create new email addresses on a third party app (most of whom have limits), then mailhooks are the easiest I think?
So then maybe I just need to continue with the trigger as is, using up lots of ops?
