Hi all,
after reading this Google Workspace update, it is not clear to me whether app password method will be still allowed after Sept 30 2024. In particular, we have an app that uses app password to access via IMAP the Gmail account, so I'm not sure if it will stop working after that date or not.
In that post, there is written that:
"If the app you are using does not support OAuth, you will need to switch to an app that offers OAuth or create an app password to access these apps". So, from here, it seems that app password should be still available, but I'd like to receive a confirmation.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
We will continue to support App Specific Passwords (ASPs) for POP/IMAP/SMTP
With LSA deprecation, will be blocking the ability to authenticate with a user's actual Google Credentials. However, users can still creature unique credentials via ASP.
Customers have two options:
1) Use an app that supports OAuth [recommended]
2) Enable 2-step verification and create an App Specific Password
I agree, it is not 100% clear.

Hi,I am seeing sudden issue with IMAP.
error : Timed out authenticating with server.
This has been working for last 2 years. Never saw this. Can you advise please
Great to see that app password will continue work for IMAP/POP and SMTP.
