a filter puts certain emails in a label then I read them with
var folder = "[Gmail]/MAJTableauLR";
var threads = GmailApp.getUserLabelByName(folder).getThreads();
and extract data the thread is then trashed.
for (n in threads) {
var message = threads[n].getMessages();
message[0].moveToTrash();
}
During a subsequent execution of the same script, it includes the messages put in the trash whereas if I put them in the trash it is good to exclude them from this folder. So how can I exclude these messages from the trash before they are permanently deleted in 30 days??
You have two alternatives:
Instead of moving to the trash, delete them permanently. Do you need to enable the Gmail API V1:
function main(){
const threads = GmailApp.getUserLabelByName('Custom').getThreads()
for(const th of threads){
th.getMessages().forEach(msg=>deletePermanently(msg.getId()))
}
}
function deletePermanently(msgId){
Gmail.Users.Messages.remove('me', msgId)
}
You have the method for both GmailMessage
and GmailThread
for check if it is already trashed: isInTrash()
function main() {
const threads = GmailApp.getUserLabelByName('Custom').getThreads()
for (const th of threads) {
//Will jump to the next no in trash
if (th.isInTrash()) continue
for (const msg of th.getMessages()) {
// Same for msgs
if (msg.isInTrash()) continue
}
}
}
