About 24 hours ago I enabled the Gmail API on Google Cloud. I’ve also successfully connected using Gmail 0auth API. During the “Test Step” action I recieve the 403 Error output below.
I’ve also successfully connected Google Sheets / Drive which are working as expected.
I need to be able to send an email after a trigger happens.
Looking through the other community questions it seems other people have had similarisuse with the Gmail API. None of the suggestions helped me though.

Gmail API has not been used in project ##### before or it is disabled. Enable it by visiting https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/gmail.googleapis.com/overview?project= ##### then retry. If you enabled this API recently, wait a few minutes for the action to propagate to our systems and retry.
The error you are seeing is coming back from Google and they don’t seem to think the option is enabled.
I would follow the link in the error message and double check for any extra prompts that Google are after. It can sometimes take a bit of time but I would expect it to be working now but following the link they are providing will likely show what the problem is.
