Watch out for

PII exposure is a major risk so ensure you mask customer names and addresses before sending data to the OpenAI API.
Hallucinated categories can cause audit failures so add a confidence threshold check that flags low-certainty items for manual review.
API rate limits can block the run, add exponential backoff logic in your code process step to handle throttling gracefully.
Gmail authentication tokens expire quickly so implement a refresh mechanism or use an app-specific password stored securely in environment variables.
