Sending emails using GMail SMTP with OAuth2 authentication
Q: Sending emails using GMail SMTP with OAuth2 authentication. I am trying to set up an outgoing email notification that will happen when a file moves to it’s destination.
8th of May 2022, we are working on an update because of: OAuth out-of-band (oob) flow will be deprecated
Instead of the Google URI urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob you’ll have to use a loopback (IP) address as Redirect URI like http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost
In this update (version v2022.5.8.0) a redirect port will be added which is only needed during the OAuth2 verification setup.
Please check: Update Info

A: Yes this is possible.
First check if you enabled the GMail API in your account: https://support.google.com/googleapi/answer/6158841?hl=en
Secondly we’ll need credentials ‘Client ID and Client Secret’ for the OAuth2 authentication: https://support.google.com/googleapi/answer/6158857?hl=en&ref_topic=7013279
We added some screenshots to help you with the setup.
Don’t forget the Security Options:
OAuth2 Setup:
Please add the following information:
– Authorization Endpoint URL: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth
– Token Endpoint URL: https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token
– Client ID
– Client Secret
– Scope: https://mail.google.com/
– Redirect URI: urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob
Click GET and your browser will open. Follow steps and copy / paste the code from your browser in the ‘Auth Code’ field.
This will automatically fill in Refresh Token and Access Token. Do not forget to <Save> afterwards.
RunTime Log Result when testing:

Google Cloud Storage as Destination in Limagito File Mover
Google Cloud Storage as Destination was added in Limagito File Mover version v2021.7.8.0. In the following example we’ll upload a File to Google Cloud Storage.
1.First we added a Windows folder as Source:
2. Next we added ‘Google Cloud Storage (G Cloud)’ as Destination:
3.We want the files to be copied into the ‘/Test’ folder of Bucket ‘limagito’. At the moment we use the ‘Service Account JSON Private Key’ as authentication. You need to generate this in your Google Cloud Setup and after download import this JSON file using the Import Button.
Don’t forget to set the Bucketname. In our case it is called ‘limagito’.
Hit ‘Connect’ to test the connection:
