Automatically creating a "Done" Activity after an email is created & sent
Hi can anyone tell me if there is a way to automatically record an activity as done once you have say created and sent and email. I would like to track how many emails I am writing without having to then go and created the activity and set it to done.

you can report on email activity, without creating tasks

I have a similar question, but I am not interested in reporting. I just want to see the completed activity on the contact without having to create it manually.
So workflow would be: I send a mail and it will automatically file a completed activity at the contact, as the title of the activity e.g. the subject of the email.

Is this still an active topic? I want to measure the effectiveness of my salesempoyees and salesprocess so therefore I look at the amount of activities (calls and emails) they have with customers. And I also look at the amount of activities per customer, to manage the effectiveness of the process. Therefore I feels really weird that it is not possible to make an automation in PipeDrive where every sent email linked to a deal, automatically creates an activity within this deal.
In automations there is an opportunity to compare 'total emails sent' to another field - but it is not possible to compare this to e.g. a customized field of to the amount that it was before the email was sent. Therefore it is not possible to create this automations.
It feels so weird that all Pipedrive users need to manually log every email - so Pipedrive: could you please make a minor change in the automations and let us automatically create an activity after i send an email?

Hi Tomas -
You are correct, this is not something that can be done via workflow automation.
However, I think the reporting you’re looking for is available if you use email sync within Pipedrive. Is there a reason that this won’t work for your team? If you did use email sync, you would be able to create reports and a dashboard to review activities completed and emails sent by User and by Organization.
Please feel free to reach out if you would like additional support.
