Hello Community Members!

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

How to Send an email to an Gmail account using Power Automate cloud flows?

Hi PattiF ,

Thank you for choosing Microsoft Power Platform Communities.

I would suggest you remove/blur your personal email address from your post.

Here are the steps you need to follow to connect the Gmail connector in Power Automate. :

Create an OAuth Client Application:

Go to the Google API Console and create a new project.

Navigate to Credentials and create a new OAuth client ID.

Set the Authorized redirect URIs to https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth.

Note down the Client ID and Client Secret.

Create a New Connection in Power Automate:

Open Power Automate and go to Connections.

Click on New Connection and select Google.

Enter the Client ID and Client Secret you noted earlier.

Choose the Authentication Type as OAuth 2.0.

Give your connection a name and click Create.

Use the Gmail Connector:

Now you can use the Gmail connector in your flows.

Add a new action and search for Send an email (V2).

Select the connection you just created and configure the email details.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you need any more assistance.

If this fixes the issue, please mark as resolved to help others with find it.
