Connecting Gmail and Google Workspace securely

For now, Gmail and Google Workspace are connected to NexReply using an app password for the mailbox. You do not share your regular Google password.

Step by step

01

Choose the correct mailbox

Decide which Gmail or Google Workspace address NexReply may use. Make sure you can access this Google account. For a managed Workspace account, your administrator may need to confirm that IMAP and app passwords are available for this mailbox.

02

Turn on 2-Step Verification and create an app password

Enable 2-Step Verification for the selected Google account. Then open that account's security settings and create a separate password for NexReply under App passwords. If the option is missing, contact your Workspace administrator or NexReply; it is not available for every account.

03

Have NexReply configure and test the mailbox

Ask NexReply for a secure transfer link if you need to provide the app password. Do not send it by ordinary email or through the contact form. NexReply configures the mailbox through IMAP and SMTP, then checks with you that a test message arrives and a reply can be sent. Enable automatic sending only after this check.

Official documentation

Google requires 2-Step Verification for app passwords and may disable the option for some accounts, including managed Workspace accounts. Ask your administrator to check availability if App passwords is missing. Reviewed on 25 September 2026.
