Email Screens
2 minute read.
Last Modified 2023-08-31 13:31 EDTThe Email screens lets you set up a system email address using one of two options to set up email. Select either SMTP or GMail OAuth. The configuration screen settings change based on the selected radio button.
The default GMail OAuth screen display changes after you select Login In To GMail and complete the authentication process for Gmail.
The Send Test Mail button generates a test email to confirm the system email works correctly.
After setting up Gmail OAuth authentication, the screen displays Gmail credentials have been applied and the login button changes to Log In To Gmail Again.
Save stores the email configuration but does not close the Email screen. Select an option from the main navigation panel on the left side of the screen to move away from the Email screen.
