Check Gmail via API

General
1

Hey, all.
I'm working on a flow to check my inbox for new emails from certain domains and notify based on that. I tried the Email node, but it hangs on fetching by IMAP since my inbox has a LOT of messages. I figured using the native Google API would give better control. I found the node @martip/node-red-google-apis, which seems to be working much better, but I am having a hard time figuring out how to pass the userId information to the node. I'm a Node Red noob, but work in IT and am fairly savvy. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something simple here.
