Email This Issue now supports OAuth2 authorization protocol to access email services such as Gmail.
OAuth2 specifications define the concept of Client Credentials which is comprised of two attributes: Client ID and Client Secret.
To obtain such a credential, you must visit your email service provider’s console page and have your provider generate a Client ID-Secret pair for you. See how you can do this with Google or Microsoft.
Once you generated a Client ID-Secret pair with your service provider, you must save these credentials in Email This Issue and use them in Mail Accounts and Smtp Connections if you choose to use OAuth2 authorizations to access these services.
Client credentials (client ID and Secret) are required to access the provider and retrieve the so called Refresh Tokens and Access Tokens that ensure you’re allowed to access the service.
Without such credentials, OAuth2 authorization will not work.
