Send email via google workspace gmail SMTP

App Development
1

Hi,

I’m trying to send email via google workspace gmail SMTP, but I’m getting the following message while testing it in Tadabase - "Failed to authenticate on SMTP server with username “MYEMAIL”

I’m using Gmail SMTP relay service with the following config:
Only addresses in my domain, Require SMTP authentication, Require TLS encryption

and in Tadabase:
host: smtp-relay.gmail.com
port: 587
I use my email as user name, and my email password
Encryption: TLS

Any thoughts?

@lior I’ve never used the SMTP relay, generally just smtp.gmail.com.

Eitherway, can you try enabling Less Secure Apps

You can also try creating an App Password as can be seen here: Sign in with App Passwords - Google Account Help

Generally, we recommend using something like SendGrid although Gmail certainly does work as well.

Thanks! the App Password made it work!
