Hi Rakhi,

If you want to send email using Gmail, you have to setup an app password that we will use in the email configuration inside Service Center. 

Follow the below instructions:

  • Go to https://myaccount.google.com/security 
  • Under Signing in to Google click on App passwords
  • Sign in again using your Gmail username and password
  • Generate an app password an copy the value
  • Login to Service Center of your Personal Environment
  • Go to Administration > Email
  • Paste the generated app password in the Password field
  • Click Save and Apply Settings to the Factory
  • That's it, you should be able to send emails now

Regards,

Hi,

Most probably this error because, username password provided for SMTP are not correct.

Hi,

The error message seems to be clear, authentication required. There is even an url provided with additional information.
