Hi Konrad,

Thanks for reaching out.

Sorry for the outdated screenshot. I was forced to deprecate the Google oAuth connection method due to changes on Google’s side – they would require that every client create their own project and generate credentials, plus other complications.

I use Google Workspace myself and have been able to set the app password. Please follow this URL for the instructions on how to get the option to appear:

According to that article, the App password option may not appear due to the following:

• 2-Step Verification is not set up for your account.
• 2-Step Verification is only set up for security keys.
• Your account is through work, school, or other organization.
• You turned on Advanced Protection.

After I enabled 2-Step Verification, I was able to see the App password option.

Cheers,
Vinny
