Email Audit Automation Workflow (Gmail + AI Agent Integration)

Workflow Description
The CSRD XHTML Email Audit Automation Workflow is a powerful n8n automation that connects Gmail, AI auditing logic, and CSRD XHTML file processing into one seamless system. Designed for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) teams and sustainability compliance professionals, this automation automatically extracts attachments from incoming Gmail messages, validates and audits XHTML report files for CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) compliance, and sends back a detailed AI-generated audit summary directly to the sender.
At its core, the workflow combines Gmail Trigger, Extract from File, JavaScript code nodes, and AI-powered email generation to streamline manual ESG data reviews. It checks for crucial sustainability disclosure tags like esrs:SustainabilityGovernance, esrs:StrategySustainability, and GHG emission KPIs (Scope 1, 2, and 3) within XHTML reports. The built-in AI Agent, powered by OpenAI GPT-4o-mini, intelligently transforms JSON audit data into clear, actionable email summaries with structured output parsing for accurate formatting.
This workflow is production-ready, with comprehensive error handling, secure API authentication, and automated retry logic. It supports automated sustainability report auditing, ESG data validation, Gmail AI integration, and document-based quality checks for reporting teams. Perfect for organizations that manage large volumes of CSRD, ESG, or sustainability reports and want to ensure compliance while minimizing manual review time.
Whether you’re an ESG analyst, compliance officer, or automation engineer, this n8n workflow saves hours of repetitive work by turning email-based sustainability audits into a fully automated, reliable process.
