Setting up a GMail account using OAuth

For the GMail provider, the OAuth authentication is enabled by default. Since the users enter mailbox login and password directly on the GMail page, the mailbox credentials are not saved in bpm’online database.

To set up a Gmail mailbox in bpm’online:

1.Open the [Email] tab of the communication panel and add an email account. You can do this in one of the following ways:

If the list of mailboxes is empty, click the [Add new mailbox] link on the [Email] tab of the communication panel (Fig. 1). Click the mailbox authentication link.

If there is at least one mailbox in the list, click btn_detail_menu.png and select [New email account]. As a result, the GMail authentication window will open.

2.Enter email address and click the [Next] button. Google account selection page will open.

3.Select a Google account (Fig. 2). You may need to log in to Google at this point.
