Sign in with App Passwords¶

This section is only important if you are using a two-factor authentication account. Otherwise, you can proceed to the next section.

Creating and using App Passwords¶

For accounts with two-factor authentication enabled, the default password cannot be used. Thus, it is necessary to generate a password for the application that will be used in place of the default password in the login step.

Google Accounts¶

• Access your Google Account.

• Go to the Security tab on the top-left menu.

• Under "How you sign in to Google" select 2-Step Verification, and log in with the account that will be used with the plugin.

• At the end of the page, select App passwords.

• On the screen below, select Other and choose the name you prefer for the application, and click on Generate.

  

• After creating your app password, copy the generated password and use it instead of the default password at the login step.

  

Outlook Accounts¶

• Access the Security basics page and sign in to your Microsoft account that will be used with the plugin.

• Select "More security options".

• Under "App passwords", select "Create a new app password". A new app password is generated and appears on your screen.

• Just copy the password that was generated and use it instead of the default password at the login step.
