[Tut] How to Show Only Unread Messages in Primary Gmail Tab?

How to Show Only Unread Messages in Primary Gmail Tab?

<div><p>This is a small trick I learned the hard way. When working through the massive amounts of emails, I often wondered: how to get only the unread ones in Gmail that are also in the primary tab?</p>
<p>Queries like these happen quite frequently when working with Gmail. As it turns out, there’s a simple solution:</p>
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/grafik-5.png" alt="" class="wp-image-4446" srcset="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/grafik-5.png 1007w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...300x73.png 300w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...68x188.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1007px) 100vw, 1007px" /></figure>
<p>Simply type the following command in your search bar:</p>
<p><code>in: category:primary is:unread</code></p>
<p>For coders, this is an easily understandable filter operation. We want to retrieve all emails from your inbox (<code>in:</code>) that are also in your primary tab (<code>category:primary</code>) and that are also unread (<code>is:unread</code>). </p>
<p>As it turns out, Gmail comes with powerful filtering options even way beyond what you’ve seen here. Here are all the search and filtering operators in Gmail (screenshot from <a href="https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7190?hl=en">this source</a>):</p>
