How to write a conditional Gmail add-on trigger?
I would like the addon to reload only when a new thread is selected, instead of reloading for every different message.

"unconditional": {
},
"onTriggerFunction": "buildAddOn"
}]

You can use CacheService to track the ID of the current Gmail thread inside the buildAddon method. If the thread Id changes, call the main method else skip.

In that case, the addon trigger method will return void. This would cause the addon to show an empty screen.
