4D Netkit: Get Labels And Emails From Gmail

As we continue to integrate the Gmail API into 4D Netkit, we’re bringing you a comprehensive set of commands to seamlessly manage your emails.

With 4D v20 R3, we’re introducing new commands that empower you to effortlessly retrieve the list of labels, get emails, and efficiently remove them.

Let’s learn more!

HDI Google gets emails

Account connection

Before creating an email, we will create an OAuth 2.0 connection object and a Google object.

var $oAuth2 : cs.NetKit.OAuth2Provider
var $google : cs.NetKit.Google
$oAuth2:=cs.NetKit.OAuth2Provider.new($credentials)
$google:=cs.NetKit.Google.new($oAuth2; {mailType: "JMAP"})

Get label list

You can get the mail label collection by using the .getLabelList() function:

$labelList:=$google.mail.getLabelList()
// Collection with all the mail labels
$labels:=$labelList.labels

You get a collection that contains, for each label,  label name, id, and type:

Get mails

You can get the mail Ids of your mailbox by using the .getMailIds() function. For example, if you want to retrieve all the mail present in the Inbox label:

$mailIds:=$google.mail.getMailIds({labelIds: ["INBOX"]})

To get the mail content, use the .getMail() function. For example, if you want to get the most recent mail of your Inbox label:

$mail:=$google.mail.getMail($mailIds.mailIds.first().id)

delete emails

You can move to trash or delete permanently your mails with the .delete() function:

// Delete permanently a mail
$status:=$google.mail.delete($mailIds.mailIds.first().id; True)

// Move a mail to the trash
$status:=$google.mail.delete($mailIds.mailIds.first().id; False)
