Overview

• Whenever an email is sent to a specified address (I assume you will need access to this email address),

• Program will verify the email and the attached file meets certain requirements, i.e. is a Whatsapp back-up conversation .txt file and that the email includes the requisite information to parse in the email body (phone numbers, entered by the user).

• If requirements are not met, an error email is automatically sent to sender

• If requirements are met, it will parse the attached .txt file and populate a .csv file according to a fixed format

• Then create a post request to send to my custom back-end

Program can be web-based or through any other method you suggest. The parsing I expect to be very simple. The more complicated part is the required interaction between email/hosting company ([login to view URL]), an intermediary server or backend (if needed), and my back-end – which I’m happy to discuss. Proposals with suggestions on how to implement all these will be viewed more favorably.

Further development work possible/likely depending on performance.
