Hi,

I have a back end which will one gmail account to send email and retrieve unread attachment so I wonder if it does handle this kind of use case with a Cli tools type authentication including the use of the refresh token avoiding the user need to log in, please?

Thanks Julie

Hi @mjuliefr, can I see an example of what you want and what code you have?

jeremyephron commented 4 years ago

@mjuliefr Just wanted to let you know that you can authenticate once on your browser and then copy the "gmail_token.json" file to the new location to avoid having to log in again.
