    Description

      Update 16th July, 2021

      Hi all,

      I'm pleased to be able to announce that we've now rolled out support for OAuth 2.0 with Gmail accounts. Configuring a new Google custom inbox will now take you through Google's OAuth 2.0 permission screen instead of asking for a username and password. See the documentation for details on how we interact with your email inbox.

      Thanks for your patience,

      Avi

      Developer, Jira Service Management
