Using Gmail for Workflow Approvals

To enable the ability to approve or reject changes through Gmail, you need to:

•
Create a gmail account. This account is responsible for the application activities, settings, and API credentials. See https://www.google.com/intl/en-GB/gmail/about/# for details on creating an account.
•
Create the required API credential file.
•
Enable the Enable Workflow Approval through Gmail option under the Version Control properties. See Editing the Version Control server properties.

Creating a Gmail Credentials File

* 
IMPORTANT: To ensure that access to the Gmail account remains secured, Quest suggests that you store the configuration file in a location that is only accessible by the required administrators or delete it after activation.

The API credentials file allows GPOADmin to connect to Gmail, verify the authorization, get access and refresh tokens to retrieve and send messages.

For best practice information on securely using API keys see the Google Support documentation (https://support.google.com/googleapi/answer/6310037?hl=en&ref_topic=7013279).
