Email connector (Google is deprecating support for Apps Passwords)

[Marthael]

Hi - The Email Connector (Labs) node uses a username + password (Google Apps Password) for authentication instead of a direct Google Auth method (like the Google Authenticator node), but Google is deprecating this option on January 2025.

I am currently unable to connect to my Gmail account using a newly created token, although I can connect using an older token.

This is a great feature. Are there any plans to add Gmail support to the Google Authenticator node so we can continue using the email reader in the future?

Update. After disabling the IMAP for a few hours and then enabling it again I was able to connect using the new token (with out changing anything else). Not sure why this worked to be honest.

Bump… since January is coming
