Is there a solution to automatically follow links in an email (Gmail)?

Gmail receives emails with information about the transfer. There is a link - Accept. Whoever clicks on the link earlier (out of all those in the mailing list) is given 15 minutes to study the details of the transfer and make the final decision whether to accept it or not.
Because letters come when an order is placed, then it is not always possible to open them (for example, at night when you sleep). Accordingly, the task is as follows:
We need a program (bot) that would automatically follow the link in the letter as soon as it arrives, and, preferably, send a notification somewhere.
I think there are ready-made solutions, maybe even paid ones, to solve this issue.
Maybe there are ideas how to implement this (automate, not hire people who will click 24/7, they don’t come there very often).
Any answers will be glad. Thanks in advance)

Everything can be implemented on Google App Script and Gmail API.
Parse messages and make a request to the url found in the message.
But Google's own parser is somewhat limited. When receiving a message, you can make a request, for example, to your VPS where, another script will perform some action on a remote resource.

Hell of a dregs, but allows you to do some automation of google services, you can examine the dock to see if it can poke links.

Notifications can be organized via telegrams, sms, etc. You can google the required notification channel API
