Connect Google Gmail Mail Server

LogicalDOC can connect to Gmail in two ways:  using a Google App Password or using OAuth 2.0 authentication. OAuth is the recommended, more secure method, but it requires additional setup in Google Cloud. For a simpler configuration, you can use an App Password, which is available if your Google account has 2-Step Verification enabled.

To generate your App Password, you can follow the instructions on this page

Once generated, Insert the App Password in LogicalDOC by simply going to Administration > Settings > Outgoing Email

1. In the Protocol field, put: SMTP
2. In the Server field, put: smtp.gmail.com
3. In the Port field put: 465
4. In the Username field, put the same mailbox
5. In the Password field, put the created App Password
