This guide explains how to:

  • Connect one or multiple Gmail addresses to a Sender Profile

  • Set up Gmail using the recommended Google Workspace method

Watch the step-by-step tutorial video:

Recommended Method: Connect Gmail via Google Workspace (OAuth)

We strongly recommend using the Google Workspace + GetSales custom application method.

This ensures:

  • Better deliverability

  • Secure OAuth authentication

  • Stable long-term integration

The older “App Password” method is not recommended but still available to use.

Step 1 — Log in to Google Workspace Admin

First, sign in to the Gmail account you plan to use for outreach.

If you use mailbox providers like Zapmail (or similar), log into the Gmail inbox first.

Then:

  1. Open Google Workspace Admin Panel

  2. Go to Security

  3. Open API Controls

  4. Click Manage third-party app access

  5. Click Configure new app

Step 2 — Add the GetSales Custom Application

When configuring the new app:

  1. Enter the GetSales Client ID

    Copy GetSales Client ID from the initial Connect Gmail window

  2. Select the GetSales custom application

  3. Choose Access: All users

  4. Grant Trusted access to Google data

  5. Click Finish

Important: If you select a different access level, the integration will not work.

Step 3 — Connect Gmail in GetSales

Now return to GetSales:

  1. Go to Sender Profile

  2. Open the Email tab

  3. Click +Add New

  4. Select Gmail

  5. Sign in with your Google account

If prompted, complete the verification process.

Once finished, your mailbox will be connected.

Option 2: Connect Your Gmail Account with App Password

  1. Activate Two-Step Verification in Gmail:

    Set up two-step verification for added security. If you’re not an admin, reach out to your system administrator.

  2. Create an App Password:

    Once two-step verification is enabled, generate an app-specific password for GetSales and use this instead of your regular Gmail password.

  3. Enter Your App Password in GetSales:

    Return to GetSales and enter the app password you created.
