Connecting credential to Google account

Describe the problem/error/question

Hello guys,

Im new to n8n and just started, I was watching some YT videos to Set Up Google Credentials In n8n, but on the final step where I added Client ID and Client Secret in n8n, Google sign in button doesn’t show up for me!

it gives me an error Unable to sign without access token

I just added Gmail Trigger, Gmail OAuth2 API

What is the error message (if any)?

Unable to sign without access token

Hello there, here are some tips for getting your access token and credentials for setting up Gmail and n8n. It is quite involved but very straightforward. You basically need to create a new app with Google and direct it back to n8n.
