We need to develop the gmail addon to read the checked mail messages and process the content.We are using the below application json:

{
 "oauthScopes": [
 "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.addons.execute",
 "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly"
],
"gmail": {
 "name": "My Addon",
 "logoUrl": "https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/bookmar     k_black_24dp.png",
 "contextualTriggers": [{
  "unconditional": {},
  "onTriggerFunction": "buildAddOn"
  }],
  "primaryColor": "#4285F4",
  "secondaryColor": "#4285F4"
 }
 }

We have tried above json to load the gmail addon without opening message.

How to fix the error we get:

Open an Email Select an email for My Gmail Add-on to recommend content for you.

This feature has been rolled out. You can now use a homepage trigger to open your addon even when the user is not viewing an email. Check out the docs here.

To use a homepage trigger, just add this to your manifest file:

 {
  // ...
  "addOns": {
    // ...
    "common": {
      // ...
      "homepageTrigger": {
        "runFunction": "myFunction",
        "enabled": true
      }
    }
  }
}
