I’m developing an automated cold email outreach solution using n8n. A core requirement for this project is the ability to send emails from a Gmail account that is not currently logged in or directly authenticated within my n8n instance or underlying system.
The primary challenge lies in securely configuring and managing the necessary Google and Gmail API credentials to facilitate email dispatch from this unauthenticated Gmail account, ensuring seamless integration with the n8n workflow.
My objective is to refine the authentication process to allow for flexible email sending from a specified Gmail address, independent of the active user session or direct login state within the automation environment.
