Email into Hive

Sadly, email is not going away. So we've made connecting your email and Hive a lot less of a chore.

Written by Ellen Kajca

Send or forward an email to Hive to turn it into an action in your workspace or in a project.

Find your email address

Click your profile picture. Under Workspace, click Settings. In the list on the left, click Email to actions. Copy the workspace address, or select a project to get the address of that project. Restricted members and external users do not see Settings.

Anyone who has the address can add actions, so share it only with your team.

How your email becomes an action

  • Subject line = action title

  • Date in square brackets at the end of the subject = due date. Put a space before it, for example Send budget [01/25/27]. If your Hive time zone is in the Americas, use month/day/year. If not, use day/month/year.

  • People you CC = assignees, if they are Hive users with access to the workspace or project. If none of them are, you are the assignee.

  • Email body = action description

  • Email attachments = action attachments

Hive Mail: Fully-integrated email within Hive

With Hive Mail, you can read, send and organize email without leaving Hive. See Hive Mail.
