Send email using gmail with Power Automate Desktop

I'm trying to send an email using gmail through Power Automate Desktop.

 

I've tried a lot of configurations, but mostly:

smtp.gmail.com

port 465 (also tried 25 and 587)

 

Erros I'm getting:

- When using port 25: "Username and Password not accepted " (yes, I'm sure they are both correct);

- When using port 465: "A connection attempt failed because the connected component did not respond correctly after a period of time or the established connection failed because the connected host did not respond"

 

Any tips?

    I've got it.

     

    I had to use a app password. This is set on the gmail account.: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833?hl=en-GB
