In a previous post we saw how you could access Gmail in NodeJS. In this post we will see how we can access Gmail using Python.
Turning on the Gmail api
Before accessing the Gmail API from our python script, we need to authorize API requests from our app from a Google account. You can enable API requests here. In this link click 'Enable the Gmail API' and save the file credentials.json to your working directory. STEP 2: Install the Google Client Library. Here is a script I have written which will create a new user account. I am trying to get help in adding a bit more to it. I want to have it also send an email to the new user that is created.
You first need to enable Gmail api and get the required OAuth credentials from your Google account. The steps which are shown below. Ios emulator for mac 2020.
1. Use this wizard to create or select a project in the Google Developers Console and automatically turn on the API. Click Continue, then Go to credentials.
2. On the Add credentials to your project page, click the Cancel button.
3. At the top of the page, select the OAuth consent screen tab. Select an Email address, enter a Product name if not already set, and click the Save button.
4. Select the Credentials tab, click the Create credentials button and select OAuth client ID.
5. Select the application type Other, enter the name “Gmail API Quickstart”, and click the Create Bootable el capitan usb. button.
