Google acccount needs to re-authenticate every 2 weeks?

Questions

Describe the problem/error/question

  • Google account needs to re-authenticate manually once every 2 weeks or so for all my workflows that use it. How can I prevent this so I don’t have to re-authenticate it so often?

  • Basically n8n prompts me to login to my Google account like every other week and this is a bit annoying because I’d rather leave the automation completely on auto-pilot.

What is the error message (if any)?

See above, not an error, just an issue.

You need to activate your google oauth2 to production.

Then after the change. New auth will be forever.

You don’t have to verify if the oauth only working on your own.
