FAQ

Questions about Delete Label.

What does the Delete Label action do in Gmail?
Deletes a label from your Gmail account. Messages with the label keep the message but lose the label assignment.
What inputs does Delete Label require?
Required: Label. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Gmail returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Delete Label support batch operations?
Yes. Run Delete Label inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Gmail's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
